Oh thank god mine said I had a Trojan horse virus.

It did sort it out ok when I ran a scan but said there were new updates, tried to run updates, now its telling me to try and update later but Icon at bottom right hand side of computer has a white exclamation mark in it again.

So has mine but I'm not worrying about it as if you remember we had a glitch with AVG a couple of weeks ago and they sorted it out their end.
