I tried to download some file from some website and then the internet stopped and the computer restarted itself when it finished start up it had a red circle with an X and PC Security 2009. I had never installed pc security but it was there for some reason and it keeps saying you have a virus or windows has detected a spyware infection. I know it’s not telling the truth unless it’s talking about itself pleassssee help.
Hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and open the task manager.
Stop all processes with a bunch of numbers in them.
Go to Start>Computer>C: drive>Program Files>Temp files, and delete them all.
Empty the recycle bin.
Then go to Start>Run>type %temp% and delete all of those.
Empty the recycle bin again.
Then restart the computer, tap the F8 key while it is booting up, then choose "Safe mode with networking".
Download Malwarebytes from here:

When it asks you where you would like to save it, change the "mbam_setup.exe" file to xxxxx.exe.
Then install it, update it, and run a full scan.
