It's a Virus you really need to run a boot time virus scan and disconnect from your network while it does it.

boot time scan where do i get that?

 

[Wraith]

All anti viruses will have a boot time scan option. It scans on boot up before your OS and other software loads into memory.

uhh i shouldnt have ask this but anti maleware isnt antivirus? if you could would you link me to free antivirus?

 

[Wraith]

No Anti Virus & Anti Malware are 2 very different beasts.

AVG Anti Virus
or
Avast Anti virus
Both are good.

and run your scanners in safe mode. Also turn off your system restore function as well before you run the scan.
