I have a strange Virus please help me.

By the way if you were to suggest an anti-virus which one would you? Both free and non (pref free)

Avast, does all the work on the background for you and it doesn't take lots of resources at all. I never had any problems since I started using it.

Try that malwarebytes program, it really did the job for me.

Heard of it though I've never tried it myself, I'm gonna give it a try, I do need to close the Microsoft Security Essentials though right?

There's an option that you can make both running on the same time but I wouldn't really suggest it. So yeah you better get rid of MSE if you are planning to install another antivirus.

Alright thanks.

I had this about a week ago after I downloaded a torrent. It was some program called "TornTV" that wouldn't delete from my computer, and also some extension for Chrome.

Before trying to remove it, I stopped explorer.exe from task manager and then it was removed.

You guys are confusing viruses with Spyware and Browser Hijackers. These are not viruses. Anti-Virus software will not protect you from these. You need both Anti-Virus AND Anti-Spyware software to defend your system.

As for Avast! and Microsoft Security Essentials, both of these are great Anti-Virus programs. Microsoft Security Essentials also, (although not very well known), integrates itself into Windows Defender to use its features to protect against Spyware too. (Contrary to popular belief, Windows Defender is only turned off, not disabled, when using Microsoft Security Essentials, as the program's GUI hooks into Windows Defender's engine itself).

I have also heard good things about MalwareBytes over the years, but I have never used it personally.
