Adobe Reader and malicious virus?

Hello,

I have big problems with my computer since I downloaded from the net a adobe reader ...

My screen changes orientation continuously, the cursor has gone in several applications (word, excel) and my mouse is totally crazy, I find it almost impossible to control.

By researching on the web I found:

Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader victims of a flaw javascript - The Virus Net - Articles: TSO

Would I been infected with this virus famous?

If among you there are people who have encountered the same problem it would be nice to me your comments and solutions.

In advance thank you to all.

Best regards.

Hi,

are you have a firewall and antivirus?
If so, put the update, restart in Safe Mode and scan your PC.

Hello Jarvis,

I'm actually equipped with a firewall and anti-virus Norton.

I will try to follow it as recommended.

Thank you very much.

Best regards
