RedTheFrench

Hello Bitdefender Community, I have a malware on my computer and I don't know what to do Bitdefender isn't deleting the malware and if I look by myself to delete that virus I find nothing please help me, and by the way the malware is trying to send my personal infos (passwords,...)

to a website with this URL "www.boomlings.com."

I need help asap because I don't want my infos being leaked somwhere...

If I have to reset my computer I can do it but I think they may be some other ways
