OK well tonight I was searching for discount handbags on the internet and I clicked on a link that ended up being porn for whatever reason so I decided to download a free anti virus anti spyware scanner called CYBERDEFENDER. The stupid thing found viruses called "dropper" and "stilen". It automatically quarantined the files. When I went to stop the scan and turn it off, the error message "IE has encountered a problem and needs to close" message popped up. Then whenever I would try to open it it would just say the same thing!!! So I restored the files it quarantined and restarted my comp. that didn't fix the problem so I uninstalled all CYBERDEFENDER programs. Now IE works hopefully permanetly. Now for my questions: 1) Why did cyberdefender stop IE from working
2) What is a good, resonably priced antispyware antivirus program I can use to get rid of the viuses CD found?
3) Did the quarantining the viruses cause IE to stop working?
My computer predicament...?free antivirus download
1. may be the infected file belongs to IE 7
2. free - AVG
Price - KASPERSKY
3. there might be a chance
i prefer u to use firefox, its safer than IE
My computer predicament...?internet security
Don't know much about Cyberdefender so can't comment on why it screwed things up.
