    I've never been infected by this, though might I ask, what did you try to do to remove it in the first place? Sometimes there's the gold old nuke and reload type of fix, other times it's a good case of using the right cleaning program.

    As far as I know, WindowsClick is a browser hijacking virus that should also display advertisements.

    Re: did anybody got their computer infected with windowsclick?

    Is it a trick download, or a virus, or a combination of the two?
    70% of my life I fished, the other 20% I wasted in school.

    It can be a combination of either a drive-by via iFrame/Ad download or it can be packaged into a download.
