I hope you have created a restore point. Also, as this was a clickable link, it may be a phishing file, which basically either sends you to a fake site, or places a keystroke recorder on your computer in order to steal your passwords and other information. Your best bet is to first go back to a save point your computer has created, and then change all of your passwords. Try running windows defender.

burn wot ?

burn it, it's a communicable virus.


seriously, try setting your computer back a few days in the control panel somewhere....i know i did that once and it worked long enough for me to rid the computer of the virus
