you have an infection. If you clicked on it when it popped up, it will have infected your PC.
Run a scan with Malwarebytes:

and remove all it finds. If that doesn't remove it, try a scan with Super-Anti:

and remove all it finds

If that still doesn't clear it up post back

Some HELP in posting on Computing.net plus free progs and instructions Cheers

How about system restore to the time that the pop up is not popping up yet?

It's a trojan virus that promotes rogue security applications. Use malwarebytes anti-malware or Spyware Doctor.
