My home PC has become infected with the FAKE Trojan. For the past few days I am getting numerous pop ups asking me to install Windows Malicious Software Tool. It looks real - it is a Security Alert but experience told me "yah, right!". I have been working on my PC for days and I think I may have it cleaned now, but not sure.

I have a palm sized 500GB external hard drive and have been saving all my files, emails, favourites just in case I have to rebuild it at some point.

Alt/F4 is our friend. If any of you get any unusual pop ups, Alt/F4 will get you out if it safely.

BTW, none of my pop ups happened when I was in PT.
