It might infact spoof the site onto another infected website, then my friend you are out of luck. Either download it on a computer that isn’t infected, or format windows.

First of all: NEVER DOWNLOAD AN ANTIVIRUS ONLINE UNLESS IT IS LIKE MCAFEE OR NORTON OFF OF THE INTERNET!!!
Second: go to my computer go to where it is installed and delete th folder. if oyu cant find the folder click start click search and then serach the folder/file when u find it tehn delete it. after this you may want to buy norton or mcafee because now your computer either has a virus, or spyware.
