Please warn others of this scamware. Winfixer is a virus that hijacks your computer. It continuously bombards you with pop-ups warning you of potential problems with your computer. This is their bogus way of making you buy their crappy product that is supposed clean up your computer. You should warn people that are not computer savvy because those are the ones who will mostlikely be conned into buying their product.
I was hijacked by Winfixer earlier today, but I downloaded Ad-Aware and it got rid of it. Too soon to tell, but I'll keep you informed. By the way Ad-aware is a free software that gets rid of spyware and stuff. You can download it for free at sites such as download.com and tucows.com. I highly recommend them, and it's very easy to use.
