heads up on a virus that hit my sisters PC, its a nasty one that takes some hacking to get rid of it. the AV360 virus has'nt hit here I guess maybe cause PC Tools is protecting from it. there are many fake sites that come up on google that lead you to a page to download Antivirus 360 (not Norton's) do NOT download it, it's a spyware tool to open your PC to the hackers. after she got it I tried installing Hijackthis and Spybot and neither would run. it has the ability to kill alot of programs, you can read more about it here...

I don't know why this site brings up nothing for this virus. Good luck.

I went to the read about it more site, Spyware Doctor AV+BG sent up a block/allow alert.

I allowed it and it seems to be a valid site.

FP perhaps?

Nasty bugger this Antivirus 360.
