Possible computer virus?
Could this be a virus?I opened a link on Google something about how to program Skype or something like that when a page pops up alerting me that five computer viruses have been detected on my computer. It asked me if I would like to run the antivirus system. I clicked " Okay." It then alerted me that the antivirus system had an unknown publisher and asked if I should still run it. I clicked " Cancel." It's been about three minutes and nothing has happened. No pop ups. No computer shut downs. Nothing.What could be wrong? What should I do?Oh, by the way the only one I remember out of the five that the notice claimed were infesting my computer was the Trojan Horse virus.
