    I think your antivirus software did'nt work. So you just download AVG for Free which you can download for free from http://www.grisoft.com/

    Or you can search for better antivirus softwares from http://www.download.com/

    If you scan your computer the virus will be destroyed.

U cal also call the geek squad at best buy and they will help ya--even if you didn't buy it there. or jus give it a shot of penicillin to git rid of that virus lol

    Sounds like a scam to try to get you to DL a program that WILL put a virus on your system.

    If your other AV programs are telling you you're safe I would bet you are.
