All of the time! I constantly have these balloons that pop up and tell me that my computer might be infected. It is not. They say that I need antispyware. I don't. It is fresh and installed. Help!!

Figure out which icon in your tool bar is causing the balloons. Now right click on your tool bar. Click on Properties. Under the task bar tab down in the bottom right hand corner you'll see customize. Click it. In the new window that pops up find the icon. Where it says "hide when inactive" left click on it and a drop down menu should appear. Select "Always hide". OK out of everything. That should take care of it.

Sorry, but your computer is indeed infected. Those balloons that you are seeing is the infection itself, try to entice and goad you into purchasing the rogue anti-spyware product.

The "Your computer is infected" warning is a scam. It is usually caused by the Smitfraud infection. To remove go here:
