I have the 2007 edition of Norton virus protection. I keep getting these balloons come up on the right bottom of my screen. One said something about a worm virus and to click here to download the lastest in spyware. When I clicked to see what it was, it was a supposed spyware called VirusBurst, and I checked with Norton and found out that this was an actual virus, so thank goodness I didn't download it. I however, keep getting another balloon that is talking about a Trojan, and is also recommending me download something. I am leary of this now. I have done a scan daily and my system says that it is clear now. I keep getting screens pop up from Microsoft talking about private information being stolen and wanting me to download some other type of spyware protection. My mom said that is a fraud going around and not to fall for it. I am not very computer literate, so please can someone help me and please don't use computer terms that I won't understand. Thanks.
