What Computer Virus Cascades Multiple Pop Ups Of Win32?
Q. My sister’s computer started acting up and Im trying to find out why. Im pretty sure its a virus but I want to find out what one. When she started up the laptop it loaded and displayed the login screen. As soon as she logged in the screen went black and immediatly started filling up with pop ups mentioning Win32. She tried using Ctrl+Alt+Del and it said there were no running programs. Does anyone know what it is? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Can’t tell from what you said. Your sister should scan with her anti-virus software. If she does not have one, there are a couple of free ones that are very good. Go to do download.com and get Avira or Avast. While there get Malwarebytes anti-malware. Then download, install, update. Run a scan with Malwarebytes, when done run a scan with the anti-virus software.
Be cautious when trying to fix Windows problems. It’s easy to end up with more problems that when you started if you don’t know what you are doing. Leave the technical stuff to an expert or buy a registry cleaning utility first to scan and fix registry errors. The small investment you make will pay off with fewer lockups and less unproductive time due to a poorly performing PC.
The most effective tool I have used to SAFELY fix the registry thoroughly, easily, and quickly is the Perfect Optimizer tool.
