Delete system 32, or you are forgeted.

Install and/or run Malwarebytes.

Download some anti-spyware program.  Restart and run it in safe mode.

No, it downloaded itself.

Some other information:
  • It takes the suppose-to-be-good Windows Defender into the Dark Side.
  • It disables the internet(obviously) and Anti-Virus programs.
  • It starts to spawn a stuff-load of pop-ups and fake bubbles saying "ur forgeted, join the dark sidegood side to fix"

Honestly, how can you guys fall for this stuff? The only way you can get this is if you have no antivirus, you go onto a site claiming to be a research website, it installs a virus, or you go onto a website saying "YOUR PC IS INFECTED" and it pops up a fake virus scanner, then asks you to download the software to remove it...

It's completely avoidable.
