While I was on Yahoo! doing some Fantasy Sport updates, I received a pop-up saying that if my Internet Explorer was running slowly that I may have a malicious software installed on my PC. It then told me to install Win Anti Virus Plus or something. I clicked cancel and all then the screen turned blue for a split second until I Ctrl+Alt+Del'ed the window and moved on. Then about a week later, yesterday, I got another one. This time I didn't click anything but Ctrl+Alt+Del'ed the window and installed OneCare Safety Scanner and Windows Defender. I also have a virus protection program I bought at a store installed on my computer. Knowing that I now had a Spyware or another malicious program, I ran all three scans. Neither one detected it.
With that being said, I am really worried that this is going harm my computer. If not one of those scanners detected it, McAfee included, how am I supposed to get rid of it? I looked through add/remove programs and nothing suspicious was there. I am in need of help here...
Spyware Help?mcaffee
Ad aware is the best program to remove this kind of spy ware!
Don't buy anything with McAfee!
Spyware Help?norton antivirus 2007
If you want to be confident that there is no spyware or malware on the machine, I highly suggest you download and install Spybot 1.4 (www. lurkhere .com /~nicefiles - remove all the spaces).
