i had that virus that many people on here have spoken about where it pretends i have a bunch of viruses and wants me to buy their software etc.

anyway i got a friend to have a look at it and they restored my comp back to its position a few months ago and it seems to be gone. ive downloaded microsoft security essentials and i ran it and it found 3 files (i think one was a trojan and another was adware?!) and deleted them. since then i have ran 3 more scans and they found nothing.

the computer seems to be normal as usual but im worried it might still be there hidden away, what do you think?

im just worried it might still be on my computer, how can i be sure its really gone? im a bit worried about using my laser card to buy anything online now?

all advice greatly appreciated
