HELP! System Progressive Protection virus
« on: November 15, 2012, 02:57:57 PM »
When I try to surf web on IE9, I am getting a "system progression protection" message than scans my computer and says my computer is infection. I am also getting an error message "Google Toolbar User _ 32 is infection.

I do not claim to understand how virus scanners work, but if this is a known problem a month ago, then why did it infect my computer that has avast installed now, a month later then this post?  By the way, I used malwarebytes by itself and it took care of the problem.  Have a Merry Christmas.

these rouge security programs may look the same on the outside,  but are changed on the inside to avoid detection
The creators do this as soon as they see the previous version start being detected
