Answer 5

Hi, First of all, are you using any kind of virus protection program ? If not Go to Avast.com and download their free program, I think this is the best free one. Also I would suggest using Lavasofts free ad-aware program to remove adware&spyware . Also, Is the pop-up saying your pc is at risk coming from microsoft updates?
