I'm sorry to bother you all but I'm having a slight problem with a spyware/adware program. It shows up in the bottom right hand corner with all of my program icons as a yellow triangle with an exclamation point, then it becomes a red box giving me the message "windows has detected abnormal activity on your pc" if you click next it sends to another box advising you to buy stopzilla. My ad-aware is not detecting it, nor is norton, and i dont really know what to do now. There does not appear to be anything abnormal in my add/remove programs list, though I'm not positive since some of these can be kinda tricky. ANyway I would appreciate any help you can give me!
THANK YOU!
Lauren
