i think i may be being hacked by anonymous?

Question

well sometimes when i go on the internet i get redirected to a sort of porn site for no reason (no nudes but it says if you download this file you will get some but it is obviously is some kind of virus) so when I clicked away i was told that the virus was taking cared of which it was not as it kept happening but one time when i refreshed the page it took me to a page called jamesjefferytruth.com and the page was a login screen with the user name being derptracker (also at the top where it shows the tabs it says Annanta.com) so I looked him up and it appears he was in anonymous so I'm thinking now am i being hacked by them or is it just coincidence and what do I do because I don't think i've done anything to anger them or this this just some random virus that should be taken care of soon?

You are obviously trying to be tricked by a virus. People that do this like to put viruses to your computer but the reason that they do this is because they think you will get interested with the porn and all that. You normally get these things popping up on different websites. e.g. YOU HAVE JUST WON AN IPHONE 5!

It will be a fake and it will cause you submitting to something that will make your computer slow and crappy.

About the anonymous. The guy is not trying to hack you he is trying to scam you by putting a virus into the computer with the bad software.

Good Luck, Janette

You're not hacked by anonymous...they don't hack public people they try to help people get free from surveillance on computers and stand for our rights, You may have a virus but run a virus check with your virus security program and if it finds one it will delete it...but you probably don't and it is just pop ups.

You have some malware on your computer. You do need to get a good AV program to get rid of this and to keep from getting stuff like this in the future. There are many but I suggest Norton.
If that is all that has happened count yourself very lucky. There are some rather nasty viruses out there that do a lot of damage.

Do a low level wipe of your hard drive and re-install the operating system and applications.

Then take standard precautions from it happening again. Firewall, Antivirus, use long and complex passwords online.
