omg what's wrong with my laptop? suddenly, there's this voice saying 'oh my god go away' or something like that. i wasn't loading any videos etc. everything was normal and just out of the blue, something from my laptop screamed omg go away. helpppppp!! is it virus or what?
probably a pop-up/ad on a webpage
no seriously. everything was like normal. there were no pop ons etc. i only had fb and hxf on my tabs.
fb has ads sometimes.
It's "oh my god, no way" and you have an advert on a website or a popup.
If it wasn't the emoticon above you may have been infected with a remote administration tool.

Potentially, yes. Some form part of a Botnet, others are log your keystrokes, and some are RATs. That's pretty much your lot.Quote:
