Red cross appears in toolbar
Hi Guys
I think this is virus related, but suddenly I got a red cross in a circle appear in the bottom right toolbar. When it first happened a message popped up saying "computer infected with spyware, click here to fix the problem" type message. Now the cross is pretty much there all the time and I am concerned I might have a bad virus - I have Spybot & McAfee anti virus and neither seemed to do anything about it. Any suggestions? I did speak to a computer guy who said it was a nasty virus and would need to be removed by him as usual virus tools will not remove it - any ideas ???? Thanks!! |

Couple of years back I used this to scan my parents PC. found loads more stuff that adaware and virus scans didn't. Cleaned the PC up and is running fine to this day.
