There seems to be some sort of virus that found its way onto my PC. I am a professional web developer. I am at work, and I have two PC's - an "old" one and a "new" one. The new one is infected, but at least I can work on the old and post to this forum.

I seem to have gotten this virus when I clicked on a link when I was googling why my web service wasn't working (authentication problem). So instead of that one problem, now I have two.

The virus presented windows such as "Files indexation process failed" and a window entitled "System Fix" that says Repair PC - so when I google this stuff I get tons of hits, but those links want me to click on videos and watch what I need to do or click a button that will destroy these parasites - and these seem bogus to me, too, so now I am paranoid about clicking anything!

Well maybe I just need to be patient - Vipre is running on the infected machine but it is taking a long time. And our IT person said it may not even have the definition of this virus or know what to do if it's detected.

Not sure what I'm asking you, but thanks for listening...
