Exactly. The only reason I didn’t is because Rob is a computer geek and I called him just to be sure. That shield makes it look like a Microsoft program, warning and all. Whoever is doing this is very good.

So.. just as a reminder.. if you get a popup that runs a scan and IMMEDIATELY finds an issue.. stop the scan shut off the PC and take to an expert to get rid of the bastard lurking in the shadows.. The name of this one is: malware protection designed to protect, but it could say anything else, and has a very "microsoft looking" shield as the logo, the other time it had that also.. DO NOT.. I can not stress this enough.. DO NOT click to buy the "full version to unlock all the features" you might as well post you social security number on FB.. This particular nasty shut down all running programs, it will not allow me to start either web browser or even CTRL-ALT-DEL to shut the slimy thing off.. I can't delete the program, I can't start in safe mode either to try and kill it that way.. IF the PC had a floppy drive I MIGHT be able to use a "boot disk" but thats just not happening.. damn I cant even remember now what I was doing, but I know I clicked on a wiki link.. but that may have only triggered it.. the PC has been funcky for a day or so.. mis-behaving, rebooted twice today alone before the popup came.. So.. please take care out there.. have enough sense to just shut it off (the whole PC) before more damage is done..
