Is your computer or laptop running slow? Having weird popups and re directions when surfing the internet? You might have viruses or malware. Don’t know if you have one, wondering if you have some? Well here is something you can do to see if your computer is infected.
1) Download an antivirus program, if you have windows then you can download Microsoft Security Essentials for free!

– If you have an anti virus program on your computer already, either UNINSTALL it or keep it and do not put this one on, you should only have 1 running on your computer else they will conflict and cause problems.
2) Download and install Malwarebytes (free version is fine) at www.malwarebytes.org
From personal experience malwarebytes will clean most virus’s and malware off your computer. If you some reason it will not let you install these programs its possible you are infected with more difficult malware and its best to take it to someone who knows more about this.
