Comment:

I have windows XP and I recently have been having some problems, I have Penicillin virus protection and somehow I got something else, Virus Protect Pro it is called, and ever since I found it on my computer, there have been security pop-ups saying that it found all of this stuff viruses, spyware, trojan horses, and yet, when I have scanned several times using penicillin, there was none of that, and it kept coming up saying it had found a new threat, and it changed my homepage and it is driving me insane, I just want to get rid of the damn "System Alert" pop ups, I tried deleting the sorce of this mess, and it wouldn't let me.
can anyone help?

Hi Lord Butthead, it would be good if you gave your PC specs so we at least know what operating system you have. If you need help filling out,click on the red link in my post and it will help you in filling things out for a better response.
You may also wanna try all the cleaners and spyware programs listed on there also.
That will be a good start....good luck
