Hi,
I am getting a popup about every 5 seconds, It reads as follows:
Click here to protect your computer from spyware.
Your computer is infected. Windows has detected spyware infection. It is recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data loss. Windows will now download and install the most up to date antispyware for you.
When I click on this popup box I get a window wanting me to purchase Advanced Virus Remover for $59.95. I have an up to day version of McAfee Inetnet Security Suite, which includes spyware protection. I ran McAfee, it found some problems, but took care of all of them. I still get this very annoying popup window. I have even been blocked for some websites, like ebay and USPS. I still receive emails and all seems to be working ok, except as mentioned above. I have heard of viruses that just intice you to purchase this spyware. Can anyone help? Thanks.
