Virus
A while ago, I had my computer smashed and destroyed, and I lost my Origin account of around 3 years (on a side-note, for some reason, I never actually logged in to Origin to play my Sims game, but I recently had to change a tad about my account which I never remembered having to do when I registered from what I can assume a system update of sorts and now I'm worried I lost Sims 3 since it says I registered today and I'm wondering if there's a way I can see if it's still linked to my account). Long-story short I remembered a lot about the game and decided to try and recover my account. To my surprise and joy, I got it pretty easily. Since I got it back, I decided to of course install Origin to my computer. While it was installing, my PC suddenly froze up and I couldn't even move my cursor, and it took a long time for it to shut down via the power button. When I restarted my computer, everything was lagging, barely anything would open (and if it did, it took like 20 minutes which didn't happen before), and eventually it froze again. Sister estimated I had a virus, and I think so too, and I had to reboot my entire PC.
Is there a virus or something linked to Origin? Is there anything I can do to fix this? Should I even try again?
