Do I have a virus?

2 days ago a program appeared on my computer, its name was aropxu.exe. Now I have no Idea what this program is for, it appears to do nothing, but what it does is it makes copies of it self and runs them all at once thus slowing down my desktops power. Every 15 seconds I have to open my task manager and end the process's of about 15 aropxu.exe programs slowing down my computer, but they just keep coming back. Now I tracked the program and found it's directory located in [i]Owner>AppData>Roaming>Okekoqa[/i]. So I deleted the Okekoqa file because that file contained aropxu.exe. But the program wouldn't delete, it just kept coming back. I haven't downloaded anything recently and when I checked the programs creation date and it say it was created on the 25th of December, 2013. So, a recent program that's pissing me off greatly. Note that whenever I end the process of aropxu.exe in task manager my computer speeds up. A. Have any of you seen this program before? B. is it a virus? C. how do I get rid of it? D. Am I retarded? Edit: Don't worry guys I fixed it. Thank you to everyone who gave me advice. You have all earned a follower.

  • go to walmart/bestbuy or your local IRL computer store. buy malwarebytes anti-malware pro on a CD. load it and run it. precede to win. if this fails, scan for rootkits. PS: Pro tip: Common Sense: don't run facebook or e-mails or anything with a private password on an infected network unless you want hackers to steal your sh*t, brah.

    Kill it with fire. You might have to manually delete this, the above video is old, but will work for you. What was the program you got it from? What do you think gave you it? If it's porn, please let me know what provider so I can give you some research into common viruses.

      • BEGINNING TRANSMISSION: (Low melodious hum.) If you know the program has no important roles for your personal computer use, delete it and reset your computer. However, if you have no idea what you are doing, do not touch it and have a computer specialist examine your computer as soon as possible. ENDING TRANSMISSION:

        • Malwarebytes in safe mode. Maybe a rootkit scanner as well. Rootkit reveal or tdsskiller will work. Then clear out your system restore points and reset your browsers.
