Hi All,

I appear to have a virus on my computer called MPC Cleaner. Has anyone had any experience with this and know how to get ride of it? It doesn't appear on my Programmes when I try to uninstall it there and when I try to delete the files through going onto Programme Files x86 it tells me that I need administrator privileges, which I should have as I am the only user on the computer.

Please help!

Also, it has messed my internet up with lots of adverts and all.
Many thanks in advance

If you're reasonably PC-literate following this will get rid of it for you: http://howtoremove.guide/mpc-cleaner-uninstall-remove/
Otherwise, like Patcham said, your best option is either getting a professional to look at it or spunging on a good antivirus/system cleanup tool

That will teach you for going to dodgy sites!
