So do you think the Windows update was legitimate? It looked just like all the others I've seen and Webroot isn'f finding anything. Is there anything else I should do?
I just now clicked on Windows updates and it started to install two more updates, even though it said it had checked today and I was up to date.
I know Windows does seem to install things without telling you. I've been using programs and then suddenly you can't do normal things so then you end up rebooting and it tells you it is finishing updates that you didn't know were being installed.
Also, I did NOT click on anything on that website that came up. I just use the taskmgr to force firefox to close. But of course when I reopened firefox, it took me right back there, so I had to force it to close again.
It just seems odd that there was a windows update without any notification and then it doesn't show anything in Windows Updates about it. Although with Microsoft, why should it seem odd?
Just want to know if I can consider myself safe, or if I should do anything else.
(I also had some trouble logging into this site. I had to reset my password. I looked it up and it seems like I was typing it correctly. Has anything changed there.)
Thanks.
