Don't tell me you clicked on the link!!??

That's a motha of a virus!

God have mercy on your poor comp.

VirusBusrt is rogue spyware remover. Which means it's a fake program that fools people into thinking it is a real application for removing spyware. The developers of this program have a LONG history of un-ethical tactics to acquire their customers. They work hard to get their spyware installed on your pc. Then, once infected, you're pounded with irritating false Virus alerts. These alerts are irritating by design. They hope to frustrate you into shelling out $50 for VirusBusrt just to stop their popups.

Read all about it and download the removal tool from http://remove-virusburst.org/VirusBurst/Virus-Busrt-Removal-Guide.html?gclid=CJeZyvzt_ocCFQf0JAod1m--BQ

All the best.

Cheers

PS,

OMG!

This Cuite!?!?

She really cracks me up!?!?

How does she do this?

Your browser has been hijacked by crooks. VirusBurst is a anti-spyware program that is known to issue fake warnings on your computer in order to manipulate you into buying its full commercial version. The program is generally installed by a Trojan that automatically downloads and installs the program.

DO NOT BUY IT!

Here is how to get rid of that nonsense. However it doesn't look easy to do. be sure to read everything there very carefully.
