Monday, 18 January, 2010 12:54 AMYesterday afternoon my computer went wild by showing me software package I should download to my computer called "Securtity Tools". It gerneated several screens that i can't get out of and it is forcing me to downloand and install the software. I believe it is some kind of Trogan Horse. I immediately disconected my computer from the inter net and my in home network. I statred WindowsLive one care and ran the virus scan. It found a trogan horse and contained it. I can't get the software off of my computer. It still tries to loan the "Security Tools. Is there an updated software virus tool to remove this??
