    I take action on a malware ,am I Safe?


    So I downloaded this thing that had a virus in it and when I downloaded it, it said it had a virus. Then McAffe told me if I could make them change my computer. Then I blocked the download, put it in my bin and emptied it. I did a scan and everything was fine. Am I safe now?
