I got an email today on my phone from my ISP stating that I had violated their copyright rules in either posting, sharing, or transmitting a copyrighted object. In this case according to the email it was Hitman Agent 47. I did not even know they made a new Hitman movie. It allegedly occurred around 1 in the morning my time. To the best of my knowledge the computer was asleep and charging in my room. I have failed to locate a virus or even a suspicious process running in the background. Please help. I am being threatened with a 250,000$ fine.

Computer has been hijacked. Please help

Could be a hoax. Call your ISP and see if they really sent the email. If it's real then
Download : ADWCleaner to your desktop. Make sure you get the correct Download button. Sometimes the ads on BleepingComputer will mimic the real Download button which should say: Download Now @BleepingComputer
NOTE: If using Internet Explorer and you get an alert that stops the program downloading, click on the warning and allow the download to complete.
Close all programs, pause your anti-virus and run AdwCleaner (Vista or Win 7 => right click and Run As Administrator).

Click on Scan and follow the prompts. Let it run unhindered. When done, click on the Clean button, and follow the prompts. Allow the system to reboot. You will then be presented with the report. Copy & Paste this report on your next reply.
The report will be saved in the C:\AdwCleaner folder.
Junkware-Removal-Tool
Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop. Make sure you get the correct Download button. Sometimes the ads on BleepingComputer will mimic the real Download button which should say: Download Now @Author's site
- Pause your anti-virus. Close all browsers.
Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.
