  some companies use this type of strategy to get people to buy their products! first they create a virus that only their company can destroy or fix, then they unleash the bug onto the internet and the advertisement that comes with it says 'Only XXXXX can fix this virus! subscribe today!' this is some lame sh!t i tell you! they earn money by causing damage to peoples' computers!

  What antivirus did you install?
  
  Let me get you a big list of fake antivirus to read.
  
  If it's one of those, I can help you fix. If it's not there, please email to the owners in the link above. They will have a fix roll out for you in a few days' time. I will contact you once it's the fix is done up.
