Lastboyscout Posted October 26, 2015 ID:997936 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Hi hope this post is appropriate here: I have nagging doubt that I may have embeded a virus on my PC. Two days ago I noticed some downloads I had not asked for. One was from Spigot Browser extension, one adobe flash and the other was Malware Virus Protection. All had the same date and time of download. I decided to uninstall them and went to do this and although they were there in the uninstall section it said they were unavailable. However, i tried to uninstall the malware program and during the process I got a text box asking if I agreed to let the program alter the HD. I agreed to this thinking it was part of the process and after checking the program has gone from my downloads folder. I did the same with Adobe Flash but left the Spigot one alone. I then decided to scan my system with my Bitdefender Internet Security 2016 which showed no threats. But I was still worried so bought Malwarebytes Malware Premium. The scan from this showed up the Spigot which I have deleted. My concern is the Adobe Flash and Malware Virus Protection programs, could they still there and did I make them unfindable even for Megabytes? Again sorry if this is the wrong section to post and for my lack of technical speak. Any feedback appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
