sounds kind of like the one i got CP..it was something 360, and said it needed to run checks, etc...

try to get to your system restore and set it back to yesterday...if u cant get to it in control panel, u probably have the same thing i did.....ended up having to have comp wiped clean and reinstall stuff....

system restore does not eliminate it completely you have to clean it out
it's deeply embedded in your system,

One more question...can i use malware again w/o paying...down the road or was it a one time deal...

I use the free version twice a week to scan my computer.

One more thing, I would go and delete your old system restore points and then create a new restore point from after running malware scanner and knowing your computer is clean

That malwarebytes is awesome! I had one of those false virus warnings on my pc a few months ago and it cleaned it out where several AV and spyware scanners failed miserably. I recommend it to everyone.
