My child downloaded a video conversion tool from the internet and with it came other files that were too installed in the computer. I noticed them when I did a PC clean up with an antivirus and deleted all of them (as I thought at the time). However, I now notice some unidentified processes running in the task manager. Whenever I look for them in the programs lists in Windows 8.1, they are not available. Where can I find them? How do I delete them?

I think I clicked on something I had no intention of clicking on in some websites and now it keeps on downloading some random websites that are fake and have suspicious .exe programs. I ran a malware detection tool and I have so far found more than 5 fake programs. Deleting them is of no use since they reappear the moment put on my browser. I do not know why my antivirus does not get rid of these viruses. Will these malware destroy my files? How can I get rid of it?

Initially, I thought autorun.inf was not a virus until recently when my AVG antivirus refused to scan it. I have tried other multiple anti-malware programs and none seems to be working. I have ejected the drive well and none of my files has been affected. Does anyone know more about this autorun.inf file? Can it affect my files when I move them to a USB? If it is not usually a virus, can one disguise itself as an autorun.inf?

I have the problem that when I open anything on my browser it redirects me to the some other page and it shows customize pages while doing any search. I think it is some kind of virus. And I found that it is redirect virus, but please can you tell me how to get rid of google redirect virus?

I have our family computer to us with 1 admin account 1 user for my wife and I plus a restricted user account for our kids. Just now  went to log in and found 2 admin log ins. First one I tried does not take my password but the second one does. Have I been hacked or a virus?

My laptop has recently been affected by the CTB locker virus and all the word, pdf and excel files has their extensions turned to .ximsrci, making them impossible to open. If I try opening them with word, the data is all encrypted. Can you help me retrieve my files since they had very important information?

Are we going to face the problem of virus in Windows 10? Do we still need to install Anti-virus in Windows 10 and worry about our system? Is Microsoft doing something to remove the problem of Virus from the upcoming version of its OS? Are there anything which the developers are involved in to meet the demand(No Virus) of thousands of users from around the globe?

Hey friends,

I use Avast antivirus for my windows 8.1 and this PC is new just a week old. I got an adware in my PC while downloading a software from unknown source. So what I did is removed that adware and scanned m PC completely to check if any virus is there Avast showed nil results. To double check I uninstalled Avast and the installed Baidu anti virus and it showed that my PC is still infected and when I clicked to remove the threat it won't do anything. So please tell me which anti virus I should trust now and use it
