I keep getting this stupid thing popping up in the bottom right hand corner telling me that I am possibly ifected with a virus or spyware - when I run the programs I have for that (webroot and trend micro anti virus) it tells me there is nothing wrong. I have my yahoo pop up blocker on and still I get this thing. If I click on it it takes me to this address http://antispywarebox.com/index3.php?aff=24&wd=C:\\WINDOWS
What I want to know is how the heck to get this to stop. It is driving me nuts!!
It also will come up with a window in the middle that says
DANGER! WIndows Security system alert! Security center has detected potential security vulnerabilites that may send private information to a remote computer. One of the processes (alexie328.dll) has just sent this information: and then it gives a blurb.
Anyone have any ideas??? Please????

Well, for one thing stop clicking on it. Also, something else that might help get rid of it is adaware, it is free.

Sounds like A Smitfraud infection to me. Go here and especially pay attention to post #3.

You have rogue antispyware which is spyware. Go to a reputable antispyware site like this
