Just got a nasty virus called WindowsRestore it says theres a harddrive error and to restart then it pops up tells you a bunch of ish is wrong with your comp...also redirects from google pages have to manually enter links locks up task manager hides all programs etc. founds ways to get it off but it was a pain.
I just wanted to watch pulp fiction
The site i got it from was megavideovideos.com or something.

No way it must have been another site you were on. I haven't used it in a while but megavideo always worked for me.

Streaming a movie doesn't protect your from a virus.
whenever you feel threaten by a virus, always make sure your virus program is up to date, then run your computer in safe-mode when you scan.
