How do I get rid of Contra Virus without buying anything else?

Question

I already have McAfee Virusscan and it didnt find it

Answer 1

most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser.

you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus. i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar.

firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser.

as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.

besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE. download firefox for free, Just have a try:

Answer 2

Your computer has a Smitfraud infection.

"ContraVirus is a rogue anti-spyware application that is known to be installed on your computer without permission by Trojans. Once installed this software will supposedly scan your computer for malware, and report back what is found. In order to remove anything it finds, though, you must first purchase the full commercial version of the software."

"The scan results ContraVirus reports are fake and exaggerated and are used as a scare tactic to have you purchase the full version of the software. To make matters worse, the program actually installs two fake files, named c:\WINDOWS\wincom27.dll and c:\WINDOWS\system\ext32inc.dll, on your computer and states that they are malware when in reality they are perfectly harmless. It goes without saying that under no circumstances should you purchase this software, but instead remove it and the malware that installed it immediately."

You can run "online scanner" Kaserpsky Russia. Rated # 1 in the world for virus detections. There is no conflict with your own antivirus. The scan will run direct from the servers of Kaspersky, Russia. Scan can take upto two hours depending on how many running processes & how many programs you have installed. The scanner will kill the virus in real time. Please allow the entire scan of your system. When finished I suggest you reboot your system.
