You did not get any virues or trojans from the offers, you got them else where. The worst you get from doing download offers is adware and maybe spyware. Seriously lay off either: the pirate sites,torrents, porn, 4chan, or whatever other illicit site you may visit and you wont get anything malicious. Also next time use Sandboxie.

Well actually thats why some people suggest to use sandboxie, and i tried the loading offers but i didnt get any points either. thats why im sticking to the surveys and not the loading offers.

If you do not have no Virus Protection then its best to use Windows Defender (if you have W7) scan your whole computer/laptop and delete it, i had a big virus on my laptop called "kabooface" its a virus that will not let you get on facebook no matter what you do (don't ask me how i got it XD) and i got rid of it by Windows Defender so its worth a shot.

I can just imagine what a virus named "kabooface" would do... Lol my friend had this virus on his computer where sometimes he would go to google and his computer speakers would go full blast and go SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS for some reason..

Dude I been using computers for years my first computer was a commodore 64 in 1985, hell I was using them when the first virus was spread(it was a created by a kid in high school to punish his friends for pirating games) on the Apple ][ computer and I been using PR and other GPTs for a few years now I can tell you for a fact that there are no viruses in the download offers, theres adware and spyware but that is it there annoying but there mostly harmless. Seriously if there were viruses in the DL offers then the boards would be flodded with complaints now wouldn't they sun shine? So you can argue with me all you want but that wont change the fact that you got it probably from downloading illegal software on piratebay or some other torrent or warez site, Facebook or some other breading ground of malware. Hell maybe you downloaded some stupid unlock program that you seen on youtube but whatever it was it didn't come from here. As for getting rid of it, boot your computer in safe mode first and then run your anti-virus,reboot and try again and chalk this up to a lesson in not downloading illegal software, playing around on social networks that have so little security that they become hacker playgrounds like Facebook, downloading things advertised on youtube or whatever stupid thing you did but again just admit the truth to yourself of what really gave you the trojan and don't do it again or don't and keep breaking your machine.

I remember one time, I was litterally attacked by a malware and it shut the whole damn computer down. I ran my virus protection/remover and it was fixed within minutes. I used malwarebytes, it has never failed me. Then again, if you use Sandboxie, 99% of all virus/adware/spyware/etc. can be wiped away fast.
