| Please help me! My Avast antivirus program keeps telling me my computer is getting attacked by malware and trojan horses every hour or so I'm on Roblox! I don't know if it's Roblox or if my antivirus has been comprimised, but if it is Roblox, please get the word to some Roblox staff! |

| Well, it's not Roblox, I get the messages more frequently now, and the messages always come in attacks of four. Thanks for the advice! |

ROBLOX isn't a virus. The scams you fall for and download to 'exploit' are viruses.

| Sometimes ROBLOX is a virus. It's if you vist places that are copied, free modeled, etc... that creates a virus |

It can NOT create a virus that gets into your computer.

Most likely not ROBLOX.
This is what you NEED TO DO. Do a Computer Scan before you play ROBLOX. When it's complete check if there is no virus. IF THERE IS A VIRUS: Download a new virus remover. IF NOT A VIRUS: Now go to a random ROBLOX game, now do the scan. That will give you an idea. |

| Avast isn't a very good antivirus. Roblox doesn't have any viruses. The viruses are coming from somewhere else, maybe certain sites? (*Wink*) |

expect with removing virus from programs(like win32.sality)
get antimalware bytes and do a flash scan, it will scan the running programs and stuff and remove threats, then do a full scan if you still have problems |

It's free. That's why it isn't very reliable. ESET is a really good one. |

Get Microsoft Security Essentials. Thats the best free antiviruse you can get. I'll get PCTools Spyware Dr. if I had the money for it. I had it once. It worked great. :-P
Oh and don't wast money on McAfee or Norton. Those used to be free, and are not any better than when they were. Microsoft Security Essentials is better than those two.

avast is good at preventing viruses, malware bytes is great at removing them
and the Kaspersky Virus Removal tool is good for disinfecting viruses that infect your programs(like win32.sality)
thats all i usually need though i have a whole set of tools to remove all kinds of infections |

| the problem with stuff like Microsoft Security Essentials is that it will remove any infected file, so if a virus infects system files or files of your programs, it will remove those and break the system |
