The report said that Backdoor.Adwind!g1 and other threats were detected on my system. WHAT IS THAT? Norton seems to remove this Trojan completely. But when I restarted my computer, it came back again. Any ideas?

No matter what I was doing on that page, the page was remained without any change. What should I do? How do I get rid of this page? Please help!

Need help. Usawindowsrepair.info says my computer has been damaged by the trojan virus. I don’t agree with that because I didn’t do anything wrong, like downloading trojan or installing malicious program. It tells that I can remove the virus by calling 1-800-378-XXXXX. I don’t believe the alerts because it seems fake. Help me get rid of it please.
Usawindowsrepair.info is a certain website. And it also is a kind of virus which is supported by the adware. It can infect Internet Explorer, Firefox,Chrome and other browsers.It will keep displaying some alerts after the users install the malicious software fortuitously. It says that you need to take action to fix the problem, like calling the phone number or clicking on the links provided by the virus. For further evil purpose, it pretends to act as a security program and tricks you into purchasing something. Actually, it’s a rogue computer program. It reports non-existing computer virus threats and does not allow you to get rid of it completely. That will put the user into a panic surely and make them purchase its fake security product by using the credit card or other online payment tools. As a matter of fact, Usawindowsrepair.info will definitely ruin your PC instead of protecting it. Read the rest of this post »

Hi, there. I don’t know why I get this virus. I feel pretty weird. I just found it when I start to browser something online. I start my Mozilla Firefox. Just with a sudden, I am directed to Search.searchmwio.com immediately. Why does it do that on my computer? My younger sister downloaded somethings online by clicked on the pop-up while she was searching for a video last night. Would that be a problem? Anyway, what should I do? I found the information on this webpage on Google. On Google, it said that this webpage is a browser hijacker. Really? Another symptom is that I keep getting ads and pop-ups while I am browsing. How can I make my computer back normal? Please advise!
Search.searchmwio.com will change your browser settings and other important system setting on your computer once it gets into your system. In most cases, this virus may get into the aimed computer through the third application on the Internet. To be specific, you may get this infection at the time when you downloaded some free files or application online, such as porn videos, fake PDF files, affected apps, and fake antivirus downloaded. Otherwise, some automatic pop-ups and ads pop on your screen in a sec. You may click on any of them without any concern on the safety of your computer. In addition, this virus may be associated with the spam emails and its attachments. Once you read them and download its files, you may give the chance for the virus. It is obvious that you may not be cautious enough while you are browsing the Internet.
