    Default New file appears on my destop. [Help!+rep]

    Ok, So I've updated my Adope software today and I reloaded my laptop and then this appeared my desktop:

    I thought it looked legit so I opened it and had a read of what it was, It siad it was free because I updated Adope.
    Put everytime I begin my scan it freezes up my laptop and I have to shut it down.

    Is it safe?
    Btw, +rep to anyone who will give me a fast, free virus scan that can work fast (Under 2 hours atleast)

    Thanks.
    Andrew

    You can only scan as fast as your disc read speed and CPU will allow but avast! is pretty good. And while that program is safe, Norton is **** so get rid of it.

    As far as i know it is a legit thing to come with Adobe stuff, but you probably should have unticked the box.

    You did download Adobe didn't you? If you downloaded 'Adope' there's a chance it's a virus.

    There's three - All very good
    The time of the scan is dependent on how much data you have stored on your computer!

    lol, speaking of dumb, a lot is two words, not one.

    anyway, just uninstall it or don't click it.
    I'm at a point in my life where I don't care if you like me or you don't. If you like me, cool. If you don't, meh.
