I’m running Windows 7, and the Action Centre gives me a message about a virus, Win32/Chir.B@mm. The name of this virus is rlvknlg.exe. The AC wants me to download the Microsoft safety scanner to remove this virus, but when I run the Avast scanner, it doesn’t find any virus.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is this a real virus?
Are you even sure this is the win7 action center, how would it know you have a virus, as it isn’t an antivirus.
Sounds like you have a rogue/fake alert scam going on, don’t whatever you do download anything or you would most likely be downloading malware.
See http://www.malwarehelp.org/fake-windows-action-center-removal-2010.html for more info on this and its removal.
