well due to multiple computer scans, it appears i have a virus
, so while i am taking care of this i will most likely not be active for a few days, hopefully.
and to help prevent this from happening in the future, what antivirus programs do you suggest?
thanks.

Avast deletes system files you are in need of.
So yeah, Good luck with that.

Nah, I've personally had Norton, AVG, and Avast. I must say that Avast is the most reliable one I've ever had. Neither have I had a problem with it deleting my windows files

Meh, But it simply deletes system files if they have viruses. So yeah.. Be careful when you use it.

AVG deleted my explorer.exe once.
It didn't just end the process or quarantine the file, it DELETED it.
I don't recommend it.

Well, you need to stop downloading those cracked games. Maybe that will help.
