Default Anyone heard about this bad virus?

Virus scanners do not detect webpages with fake scanners on them. When you
hot "OK" you have installed it.

Update your virus definitions daily (at minimum) and use a backup
check at least weekly to catch those the first one missed.

I use Microsoft Security Essentials (Norton -is- a virus, McAffee has
been totally unreachable in an emergency (for a client), AVG and Avast
missed some data logging virii in the past) along with Advanced System
Care.

And usually, when I'm downloading something, I keep a copy of Task
Manager open to close virus installers without using the keys in that
affected program.
