Yesterday, something happened which resulted in my computer repeatedly giving me pop-ups saying that someone was attacking my computer. One popped up just as I was writing this and it wants me to visit this website: Removed link


However, my McAfee says that that is a bad website. I also have a yellow bar across the top of my I.E. window that reads:

Warning: possible spyware or adware infection! Click here to scan your computer for spyware and adware...

The "Click Here" links to Removed Link

Additionally, I have a tool bar on my I.E. that is simply called etlrlws.

I installed NOTHING yesterday and I have no idea how this stuff showed up. I have run adaware and found nothing; below is a copy of the HijackThis log. BTW, another problem that has been occuring is that windows that I have open, such as Notebook with the HijackThis log, will suddenly pop up over my other windows on the screen.
