I woke up this morning with a bunch of pop ups saying you could be infected with Trojan w32 looksky and my background changed to a red background with a bio-hazard sign. Also the pop ups would take me to a link to download some Spyware product but i didnt want to trust those sites.
I ran a McAfee virus scan and it found nothing.

I would like any help that i could get, Thanks for any i do get.
