PC got loaded w/viruses yesterday morning while visiting an educational site where
my 6 yr old was practicing w/coins. At least three programs downloaded themselves,
and the craziest things started happening. In the end, all viruses were either healed
or quarantined by my AVG anti-virus program. As a precaution, I also scanned w/online
versions of symantec and McAfee. McAfee found another infected file with the virus
name StartPage-cd, but when I clicked on the link, there was no information on this
virus. I scanned the file w/AVG, and no virus was found. I tried search engines,
but the only thing I can find is several variants of startpage as a trojan horse.
None of them match the one McAfee found. Any suggestions?
