Answer 1

What brand are ou talking about? WHat other symptoms are you having. It could be your firewall, parental proection, a legitimate program or malware disguising as protection. You should have only ONE antivirus on your computer. Uninstall all redflag type software like AOell, limewire, banzaibuddy, frost, bearshare, smileys, webshots and their ilk. Without more info, my guess is you probably have malware posing as security. Give us more info and we'll try to help

Answer 2

Is the advertising trying to sell you, one (or more) of these useless products? If it is one of these, then it is likely an infection called Smitfraud that is causing the phony warnings. It is scam advertising trying to swindle you. And a link to a free removal tool is down at the bottom.

Most "All-Purpose" malware apps such as AVG, Norton, Spybot etc unfortunatly can not remove or even detect this vile pest called Smitfraud.

Good luck.
