I'm trying to make this easy to understand! The virus is set to start on Saturday, that's today, but hopefully someone is helped by these instructions.

So far, my computer seems to have recovered. It was shutting down and the virus is from using Windows, and not email related, from what I've read.

Good Luck!

Do these two steps, below to patch and scan for the virus
