Hi, I got tricked into clicking on a website that redirected me to the above mentioned site and it said something about a virus, then it went away. What did it do? Avast picked nothing up, and I am doing a Malwarebytes full scan right now. Does anyone know what this is?

I provided the full link to the site but I removed Grewungle and replaced it with TITLE NAME so no one clicks on it accidentally. Can someone help me with figuring out what this is and what it does?

A search on Google shows that this site keeps popping up in comments left in Yahoo answers.

Its a link to Antivirus 2009 a rogue antivirus site

Clicking the un-edited link and answering the prompts the wrong way will attempt to install "Antivirus 2009" (which actually is a virus) on your computer. Hopefully you got lucky.

see below.

I X'd out of the prompt. The tab closed. Nothing else happened. Should I consider backing my files and re-installing Windows? Malwarebytes picked up nothing. What software will detect if I do have the Antivirus 2009 on my computer?

If you updated malwarebytes before you ran the scan you have escaped

If you are still worried please post a hjt log
