    Various Computer Problems!
    « on: February 15, 2011, 10:34:29 PM »
    Hello.

    I have a bundle of problems on my computer. Around every 2-5 minutes, I get an internet explorer pop up. Along with that, the following will also the following pop ups which seem more severe;
    "Antivirus software Alert" continued to pop up on the bottom right corner. Under it, it says;
    "INFILTRATION ALERT
    Your computer is being attacked by an internet virus. It could be a password-stealing attack, a trojan - dropper or similar".

    "Windows Security Alert
    Windows reports that computer is infected. Antivirus software helps to protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. Click here to scan your computer. Your system might be at risk now."

    The following pop ups will stay on top of my screen unless I click "Stay unprotected" or "No" respectively:
    "ATTENTION ! SPYWARE ALERT
    Vulnerabilities found.
    Your computer is infected by spyware - 34 serious threats have been found while scanning your files and registry. It is strongly recommended that you disinfect your computer and activate realtime secure protection against future intrusions."

    "Virus Alert!
    Application can't be started!
    The file ____.__is damaged.
    Do you want to activate your antivirus software now?"

    I have searched through the internet and this site looking for help, but I've realized that I need a personal topic to gain the best help. Please help, thank you.
