This Virus or Malware or what ever the heck it is unbelievable. It has taken over my entire computer, it won't even allow me to do a system restore. The problem occurred after I downloaded: opencrxserver-2.8.5-windows-installer.exe I tried to delete the file and there are over 25 copies of it now found, but when trying to delete it it says the file doesn't exist. Can someone please help me with this? Thanks, so much.
