According to CA I have 11 high risk "Rogue Security Software" and "Keyloggers", all located in C:\System Volume Information\_restore


I don't really download anything.. is this a false alarm?



+My previous antivirus (trial expired) didn't pick up any of this.

Then maybe your computer is indeed full of junk...

CA isn't the best. I would recommend Avast! or Avira + ZoneAlarm (firewall), plus MalwareBytes.

I would get Spybot Search & Destroy, even though it's GUI is eye repulsive, it does a wonderful job at removing malware/spyware and it is free!

Thanks.

Avast found nothing, and MalwareBytes found 1 low-threat trojan which it deleted.
