ok, so I keep getting this annoying pop up in the bottom right of the screen come up in a yellow bubble saying System Alert. It tells me that my computer has a number of spyware on it and to click it to get rid of it. It takes me to some spyware removal website that doesnt look trust worthy. How do i get rid of this pop up?

Hi Yppolitia!

I suggest you go to the Malware Forum and run all the steps located in the START HERE. These self-help tools will help you clean up 70% of problems on your own. If you are still having problems after doing the steps, then please post a HiJackThis Log in THAT forum. If you are unable to run and/or post a HJT log, then state that in your initial post in the topic you create in that forum.
