Infected Computer Virus Thingie!?! Pleaseplease heeeelp D:?
So I was being totally retarded the other night and going through random websites and suddenly my computer was infected with some kind of virus thing with spyware and whatever. I don't know what's wrong with my computer, so I try to go to system restore, but system restore is infected and I can't restore anything :c.
I just got a pop up telling me that spyware is infected or whatever. What's that mean and how can I fix it :c...
I'm like freaking out :'c.
A popup says that my computer is infected with spyware...what's that...what can it do and how do I get rid of it :c
Now my home screen is green with "YOUR SYSTEM IS INFECTED" in all caps...Is that bad :c

dont restart ur computer and do the following
always keep an antivirus and antispyware programm. in free antivirus avast is much better than others and malewarebits is the best u can have as the best antimalware- spyware software.going online without an antivirus is like swimming in the sea without life jacket .so never do that again.
normally system restore work on safe mode .you have to press F8 when ur system starts to go to safe mode .its true system restore might not help u to recover from viruses.

i just typed thsi answer to someone else about 30 seconds ago.....
system restore aint designed to get rid of malware. its designed to fix user errors (settings only, not deleted files) and things that microsoft updates break. thats it
you need avg or some other antivirus program

It will probably get rid of those goblins in your computer.
