Got it 30 mins ago.

Luckily I got the version that is easy to remove, there is another version, very similar which you have to play about with the reg editor to get rid of.

If you had to go into reg edit to get rid of it, thats the pain in the #### version.

The other, is just a restore job and clean

Yeah, my old man got the b*stard version & had to get a feller in to sort it out.

I had Norton till early this year all up to date but my lad went on a gaming site and managed to get a virus (supershield 2012 it was called wouldn't let me do a thing) . Had to wipe the entire computer . So now iv'e given Mc afee a go . Wont ever tough Norton again.

Don't buy virus checkers, free ones are good enough.

Only companies should buy them, as they are the only ones that will get actual support.

AVG antivirus free edition is just as good, if not better than Nortons, McAfee etc.

Its not actually a virus, its a scam. They want your money. And for info AVG cleared it, and is the best anti virus etc I have found.
