i keep getting anti-virus popups how do i stop them?

Answer 1

Your PC is infected with adware. Use these scans to remove it.

All of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.After you install any of them,make sure you update them to get the full affect.

AVG Removes I-Worm/Stration · BackDoor.Generic3.GBB and .GBC · Worm/Generic.FX · Exploit.WMF

Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

After your PC is cleaned, then install a pop up blocker

A pop up blocker wont help until your PC is cleaned.

Answer 2

Sounds like your computer is infected with the Zlob Trojan. Zlob Trojan generates fake warning messages then tries to force you into buying rogue antispyware products. To remove these messages and the trojan that generates them, download and scan your PC with SpyNoMore, it is the most accurate program in detecting zlob infections. Some messages by Zlob are:

System Alert
System Performance monitor warning
Security Alert: NetWorm-i.Virus@fp
W32.Myzor.FK@yf

Answer 3

You may disable the option by going to Menu->Tools->Options in your Anti Virus Program.
