Hello, while I was looking at my internet options trusted sites zones, I found two strange websites: whataboutadog.com, and whataboutarabit.com I looked them up and they were trojan viruses. I deleted them, then I did bitfender.com, and freedom check online, and xoftspySE, in xoftspySE, it found other viruses, when I wanted to remove them, I need to buy this one. Well I did hijack this, and I would like someone to see if there are any viruses, and if I need to download something more stronger to really dig into my computer. thank you so much

Follow directions at any of the following sites. The folks there are dedicated to malware removal and will be able to help you determine if your system is infected and if so how to clean it up. They require that you register but they are all free. Also be patient as they are usually very busy:

As an aside, I suggest you get rid of Xoftspy. It was previously on the list of Rogue 
anti-spyware apps, and none of those programs are recommended. 

There are other excellent anti programs available, and... as you said you have to 
pay to have things removed. Malware removal is free.  Good luck.

MrCharlie,

Your "WhatTheTech" link isn't working nor is the site when I Google it.  I get an 
"error establishing the database connection."
