Every few minutes I get a popup window that looks like a fake Windows Security Alert telling me, "Your computer is making unauthorized copies of your system and Internet files. Run full scan now to pervent [sic] any unathorised [sic] access to your files! Click YES to download spyware remover ..."
Of course, I never click Yes.
With my limited knowledge I've done a little bit of research. I've run scans using both SpyBot and Adaware, but the popups keep happening.
Below is my HijackThis log from my first scan.
Please take a look and let me know how I can get rid of this annoying thing!
Thanks!
