I went on a website to watch a movie and something happened.

While watching the movie a new program decided to finish downloading. I was then unable to open up program removal and delete it. It has no icon, no right click feature and no exit. I pulled my comps plug and when it went back online the thing wasn’t there. I booted my computer and it isn’t there any more either. I can open my programs and stuff. Is it all good?

Oh I did that once. It popped up in the corner and said there was a problem that needed to be fixed so I clicked on it and it gave me a virus :(

I would run your antivirus just to be safe, and if you dont have one then download spybot.
