Windows Proactive Safety
« on: February 01, 2017, 02:53:36 PM »
Hello,

I have picked up a virus that Avast doesn't recognize.  It keeps asking permission to make changes to my computer and I keep denying it.  It would be nice if it were gone.  Can you get this fixed?  It is the Windoes Proactive Safety virus.  I found a guide but it I wanted it known that avast doesn't recognize this one yet.

Thanks.

It is not a virus, it is scamware.
