Hello, I've managed to download a virus or spyware that has taken over my administrator rights on my computer. I have run Spybot, but can't delete the files because I don't have administrator rights. Windows defender has named the file as win32/Fake Powav. I can't find any information on removal tools to remove the virus or spyware (I am unsure which it is). Also it has taken over my Internet Explorer. I am unable to view any 'pictures' on webpages without first right clicking on it and telling it to show picture. It also opens random websites, like doctor websites? Strange, it's not p*rn. Example of website that keeps popping open..
