Hello everyone! I have a problem with my PC, and it seems to me as a virus causes it. The trouble is, my AVG is reporting some kind of virus, but it cannot fix it. I am afraid it will completely cause my system and that there will be no way back. A friend told me that it might be because it is Armored virus. Does anyone know something about it?

Hey there. I do not know what to tell you, except that you just got to switch from AVG antivirus to something more serious. AVG is completely redundant; it is a waste of RAM memory. I would suggest you to use Kaspersky antivirus. Since I have it installed on my PC, I never had any trouble with it. But, if you can not afford it, you may want to try NOD 32, it is OK too. As for the armored virus, I think I heard about it. It is a virus that can trick almost any antivirus program, by hiding its location. So, I think you should be careful and try to desinfect it somehow.
