Notes

I'm not sure where the badware list is but i found this virus

[mapx-]

What exactly did you download ?

[afkvido]

An exe that hijacked the library computer and triggered many antivirus warnings, then the screen started spinning around with some "GPU Tester" which didn't do any good things.

Had to plug it out.

Just provide the name of that exe.

[afkvido]

UserBenchmarkInstaller.exe

A VM could demonstrate why it's a virus.

Or i could visit a local library tomorrow and make a recording on my phone of what happens.

Sorry that this issue is poorly made and a bit insufficient. I'm just unsure on how to properly do this.
