• The file contained a virus and was deleted

  Hello

  I get the message

  the file contained a virus and was deleted

  This occurs in Internet Explorer, chrome, and Firefox (in Firefox I fixed it by going to about: Config), it started with the virus antivirus system care, which I removed, I did tests, which does not.

  Disable the warning?

  Thank you

  I did all the steps in this entire thread and no solution (good ideas, but no solution). I believe that this error message "the file contains a virus' on all downloads came from a virus on a web page (this is what I saw in my case).  When IE downloads a file, it shows he has a virus, but it's really not analyzed.  I got this message even after I've completely removed McAfee and after I reinstalled completely IE10.  It's a redirect using the points of analysis that the virus must have created.    To resolve this problem, I went to C:\ and made a random generator DIR command  He showed c:\program files\windows defender had these reparse points.  When I looked for download the latest Windows Defender, says MSFT site is no longer used on Windows 7 64 bit so I deleted the subdirectory 'C:\program files\Windows Defender' and all of its subfolders and restarted.  Problem disappeared.  McAfee and MSFT Security Essentials scans do not have that automatically remove.  Hope that helps.

  You have requested the assistance of your provider of anti-malware software (Avast, AVG, Avira, Norton, McAfee, Trend Micro, etc.)?

  Your PC is probably infected with the new variant of Sirefef AKA Zero access.  One of the symptoms is that all downloads are identified as a virus...

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/entry.aspx?name=Win32%2FSirefef

  Suggest you use HitmanPro Kickstart, which should remove this malware and fix changes made to the computer by the malware: http://www.surfright.nl/en/kickstart , you must use an uninfected computer to download it to a flash drive and then follow the specific directions on how to run the program on the infected computer.  Hitman Pro Kickstart is available as a 30 day trial version.

  For more information, see http://dl.surfright.nl/Kickstart-FAQ.pdf and http://dl.surfright.nl/Kickstart-User-Manual.pdf

  If Hitman Pro Kickstart will not eliminate your problem, you may need to perform one or more of the following scanners in offline mode - you will need to burn a CD using another computer and change the sequence of starting your computer to run the scan - instructions are provided with the links:

• CS5 plugins download really contains a virus?

  I just want to print some boards... contact but cannot download the plugin for CS5 because I get a message saying that it contains a virus.  Help, please.  Thank you!

  There is no new plug-ins. If they had a virus, it would have been discovered before today. Number of computers infected implement the messages you saw and try to take you to a Web site they control to "solve" the problem. I recommend that you download a respected virus protection system to scan your system.

• Why all my programs are "not responding" and ends up crashing?

  All my programs, including Internet Explorer have had periods where an error message is displayed in the menu bar "does not", finally they crash.  I thought that maybe the programs as a first step, but I'm starting to believe that Windows 7 is at fault.

  Have you tried to test with another user of Windows (which you may need to create)?  It will check whether your user profile is damaged.

  Try running ChkDsk to check your drive for errors. Right click on your drive icon / properties / tools / error checking.  Try first by checking do not each box (that it will run in read-only mode) to see if it reports any problems file or hard drive.  If so, restart it by checking both boxes and restart to allow him to attempt to fix any problems found.

  Assuming that you have chosen not to keep your programs and your files (it certainly seems like that) - then you will need to install Microsoft Office from your installation media using your product key.
