  1. Do I have malware ?


    I recently was browsing a website when I was redirected to a new site normally I’m pretty quick to close these before they load completely however this time I was a bit distracted so I took a second to close it right when I closed it however I noticed a download had started called “yourdownloadisready exe” I thought this seemed suspicious so I naturally cancelled the download I searched through my files and even pressed show file location but it didn’t come up thankfully is it possible I still could have gotten some kind of malware from the download even tho it didn’t finish?

    :)

    Did our Epson printer get hacked?

    Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.

    Best way to remove problem Malware

    Hi There,

    I am trying to remove a bundle of Malware without success.

    There is a bundle of listed programs which I try to uninstall through the typical Control Panel effort, but they remain listed there:

    Buenosearch Toolbar
    MyPC Backup
    PC Performer
    Speed Test 127
    UnknownFile

    I was looking at this weblink which provides a 5 step process for Buenosearch alone:
    http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-bueno-search/

    Not sure how much certain guides can be trusted. One of the first things I read was to download Revo Uninstaller, and I've not heard of it so I'm not sure if it's trustworthy..........
