Ok this is the deal my brother borrowed my usb when he gave it back I sticked it on the computer and it came with a virus saying it was sent to quarantine. I wanted to do some research of this virus it says on nod32 its Win32/Injector.ON trojan
I went to do some research of this virus and going on to a website I go in there was some information all of sudden I get those fake things to scan my computer now that I am infected with a virus now it might a coincidence or not, but I closed it and I haven't gotton that again I didn't go back to the website so I was worried if the virus was on my computer or not. My question is should I feel safe since its on quarantine nothing to worry about? Or should I worry about this. Also another note my brother said he didn't put nothing but his powerpoint from my computer after that just sticked the usb in the school for his presentation so can I assume the schools computer was infected? Just a little worried can anyone give me a heads up i would appreciate it.

Try booting your OS in Safe Mode and scan the system via Nod32 from there and remove any infections it may find (although try to update Nod32 beforehand just in case).
Also, download/install/upgrade latest Spybot and scan the system after you are done with Nod32.
It's great in removing various garbage that sticks itself into the OS and was slightly improved lately. -
If not, you are probably good but as you can get infected with malware nowadays simply by visiting the wrong website, I'd use MBAM or SAS (free on-demand versions) just to make sure (scan in safe mode). -
Did a scan with nod32 and got some viruses also with malware. I think I am good I havent gotton that website again it was probably a coincidence of the website thanks for the help
