| 1292802 | 2012-08-04 08:17:00 | No, It can't be a virus because I see no change in my computer and all accounts I use are fine (runescape, gmail etc.) my system is fine and I honestly dont think somebody has access to my pc Well, you won't always notice a difference. Not all viruses immediately screw your pc up. Some may log your keystrokes, some may add toolbars, some do other stuff. Even if you don't have a virus, it will be a good idea to put on an antivirus like <MSE link> (windows.microsoft.com). |

| 1292805 | 2012-08-04 08:24:00 | well then what is the point in a virus i dont know i have and isn't doing me any harm? Well, even if it doesn't ruin your system, it could still do some bad stuff, eg use your pc as a base to infect others. Ok, good to see an antivirus. Even though norton may be laughed at here, having any antivirus is always so much better than not. |

| 1292806 | 2012-08-04 08:26:00 | Ok, Thanks the positive energy! I will run a scan with it and with my other programme: Advanced system care 5. :) | Nikit07 (16761) | ||
| 1292807 | 2012-08-04 08:28:00 | Ok, Thanks the positive energy! I will run a scan with it and with my other programme: Advanced system care 5. :) You're welcome :) I wouldn't use advanced system care. Its not an antivirus, and could potentially damage your pc, if you're not very careful. Any benefits it brings are likely to be small. So, don't bother using it. What would be good would be getting <link malwarebytes anti malware> (www.malwarebytes.org/)(the free one) and <link spybot> (http:) and running those. |

| 1292811 | 2012-08-04 08:39:00 | well then what is the point in a virus i dont know i have and isn't doing me any harm? That is the point, You have no idea what its doing, so you should consider the worst and take steps to fix it. The steps to fix it do not consist of Norton 360. |
