I don't have antivirus actually because they are annoying system resource hogs and I have no patience for dealing with them. I would way rather pay attention and use a combo of malwarebytes and manual removal than wait all the time ... yeah, I know it is only a a split second wait most of the time, but I notice damn it! lol.

Usually I don't have any issues at all and I don't often get any sort of viruses (the network security is pretty solid there). In this case though I even knew I was going to get it. I was expecting it. So removal was not a big deal ... until I wasn't paying attention ... then things got "interesting" :/

All better now though!
