While I was actually on this site about an hour ago I had a prompt about an Adobe update......I went ahead with the update and all of a sudden I had
AVA Antivirus (not Avast) trying to install/scan my computer! I hit stop imediately and it locked me out of everything! I tried doing a system restore using the search function and it locked me out.....desperate I had tried to find it and uninstall in programs but it was not there....suprise! I then went into "my computer"
and found system restore a different way and was able to go back 2 days.
I was about to call you George but for some reason I do not have your number in my cell......

I am running a full scan now using MS Essentials (would not allow me to before by the way nor the Malwarebytes program. What should I do now if anything? Thanks....
