About two days ago I downloaded Cursor mania.
Everything seemed fine, then yesterday when I turned the computer on, it was taking a....ges to load up internet pages.
When my DD got home from school, she wanted to download some pictures for HW. As soon as she tried to do a google search, a box came up saying system virus, trojanhorse or something. It then advised that I click here for this advanced spyware. I clicked yes initially, then realised there may be something wrong, and clicked no to proceed further.
I tried to do system restore, but it won't let me go past yesterdays date.
Today the computer is going really slow again, AVG saya they have healed the virus, but I am bit worried.
Please can someone more techie advise?
Thanks!!!!!!!

is it vista or xp, sounds like a piece of spyware a freind got stuck with, look on your system for windows defender and run a scan with that, otherwise download and install this software then run a scan with it

Download "crapcleaner" and remove Cursor Mania and also give your PC a good clean up with this free download.
