Recently, i keep getting popup windows saying that it has detected a hard drive problem and that i need to perform a backup soon to prevent data loss.

However, besides the problem stated above, my computer has been running normally as usual. I have also checked the status of my hard drive in the control panel and it says that everything is performing normally.

Did several malware scans of my pc using Windows Security Essentials and MalwareBytes but all reported similar results: No threats found.

Ran a full system scan using Hijackthis software recently and came up with a log which i have no idea how to interpret. PLease help. Thanks alot.
