I am using Windows 7, how do I get rid of this virus Scam? Any help will be appreciated.
You Steal Music I Lock Your PC is a new-style virus that can modify your BIOS setting and take over your computer as soon as it is installed. It is not as similar as those ordinary ransomware like, Reveton, Urausy which pretend to be from the FBI, Department of Justice or other police department, this type of malware will not demand any money or give you jail time to scare you, instead it shows you an ANSI image saying “You Steal Music I Lock Your PC ” and make it impossible to access your PC anymore.

My computer is going crazy. When I type into the search bar, or a wrong url, it goes to zone alarm search terms where before it was google. It seems Genieo Search totally hijacks my browsers. I have uninstalled Genieo from add/remove programs. The program is gone from my system apart from this search engine. Usually I use IE as my default browser and I notice Firefox has the same issue. Any idea?
