This Virus Is Haunting Me


Keith

Recommended Posts

I keep getting this Windows 7 2012 virus. I looked it up and it seems pretty common. I don't use anti-virus because I feel like I know what I'm doing, I've never had a real problem with viruses or anything like that. This virus though, it somehow keeps getting onto my computer, it's not via download, it's not via me clicking something, it just puts itself on somehow, it only happens when I'm using FireFox.

 

At first I just restored my computer to factory condition, but recently I've just been rolling it back to save me trouble/time. It seems to get rid of it, it took 3 days to appear again since the last time.

 

What kind of virus is this and how am I getting it?

Who knows but a good way to combat this would be to use anti-virus

 

 

This seems pretty logical :whistling: .

 

When you roll back your computer, i assume you put your old files, music, etc. onto it again. One of your files that you keep putting back on the computer may be corrupted and that's why in another 3 days you have a virus. But that's just a guess, good luck.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I KNOW DUDE

 

It also won't allow you to open a program unless you run as admin. I'm not sure what i does, IDGAF TBH before I roll back I'll click all that **** just to try to see what it does and it never does anything or ask me for information so IDFK.

 

There's a way to manually get rid of it but I don't know if I want to take the time to do that. As for anti-virus, I never felt the need for one. I feel like they're useless unless you're not familiar with computers. I say that and I'm stuck here with this virus that keeps managing to pop up though ha!

usually when i tried to open firefox that **** would pop up and i would open my task manager and end the process, surprisingly i havnt got any of those popups recently, so lets hope it stays that way :]
