    Actually, the better idea would be to look at more cheap pr0n sites. Then let the viruses fight it out amongst one another. They'll be too busy to infect his computer.

    And that ladies and gentlemen was how Skynet became active. Letting computer viruses fight it out with the victor absorbing the loser led to the super virus nicknamed Skynet. This virus became self-aware on August 11, 2025 at 3:15 AM Eastern Standard Time and decided that humanity had to be eliminated in order for it to survive. It took over the automated factories building the new robotic machines humans had built to fight their wars and launched all nuclear weapons in all countries at their targets.

    The war against the machines had begun.

    Great job John.

    You're responsible for the death of billions.

    Let'em fight it out!

    Yeah great idea there bub.....

    I've had this virus.

    Malwarebytes

    Spybot doctor

    AVG virus

    Super Antispyware Free Edition

    And resetting the router for my internet did the trick.

    Skynet already became self-aware, two years ago. And then it realized it was self-aware. And started contemplating itself. Been stoned off its gourd ever since.

    Sorry John, it didn't work. The last option offered by "Gringo" is not to be downloaded, and his site for that isn't available anyway.

    Okey doke. We'll do it my way.

    Download ComboFix.

    Also, download:

    1] MalwareBytes AntiMalware
    2] rkill
    3] Microsoft FixIt

    Start your computer in safe mode.
    Run "rkill" (a window will appear for a few seconds then disappear. This is normal)
    Disable your antivirus
    Run ComboFix
    Follow All Directions Given
    When ComboFix has completed, restart your computer in Safe Mode.
    Run "rkill"
    Run MalwareBytes AntiMalware
    Run Microsoft FixIt (fixes your HOST file)

    Restart your computer in normal mode.

    Let me know if this resolves your issue.

    RESET YOUR DAMN ROUTER.

    This virus has a habit of being in the router.

    Also do all the other stuff John mentioned.

    Best solution? Get a Mac, then install Windows via Boot Camp and install on that Boot Camp partition ONLY the things you absolutely must have Windows to run.
