I was on my web browser "google chrome" and it crashed, so i scanned my pc and it found 2 traces of win32/heur so i quaruntined them and deleted them, my browser kept crashing and now ther is more traces of win32/heur, what do i do to get rid of this....
I found out info about it but i still couldnt get rid of it Quote from scanforfree.com "Win32/Heur, also mentioned as Virus Win32 Heur is a dangerous self-mutating polymorphic trojan virus, typically installed on windows system without victims knowledge. The Win32/Heur virus infects PC's via dubious filesharing applications, corrupt media files, spam emails and porn related web sites. Onec infected, Win32/Heur virus will modify Windows win32 system files, and install additional trojans, worms and viruses onto the infected computer. The Win32/Heur trojan is usually detected with the "Virus found Win32/Heur" alert and may activate fake Dr. Watson security warnings and redirect Internet Explorer and FireFox browsers to sites like ripetv.com or crackle.com. Trojan Win32/Heur malware is severe security risk that can disable antivirus and firewall software and hijack both local and network computers."
