Hey, I've been searching all over Google and I can't seem to find help..
There is a System Alert that blinks red and blue with a pop up saying:
System has detected a number of active spyware applications that may impact the performance of your computer. Click the icon to get rid of unwanted spyware by downloading an up-to-date antispyware solution.

I clicked it and the site that linked me to it seemed virus-infested so i exit.
I did multiple scans using AVG, Ad-aware, Search&Destroy-Spybot.
Although it got rid of things it found, this blinking icon still remains there.
Please help me get rid of this.

I'm not very good with these things and I need professional help.

Please download and install the latest version of HijackThis v2.0.2:

Download the "HijackThis" Installer from this link:
Hijack This

1. Save " HJTInstall.exe" to your desktop.
2. Double click on HJTInstall.exe to run the program.
3. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
4. Accept the license agreement by clicking the "I Accept" button.
5.Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
6. Click "Save log" to save the log file and then the log will open in Notepad.
7. Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
8. Paste the log in your next reply.
9. Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from one of these sites:

MalwareBytes1

MalwareBytes2

1. Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
2. Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
3. If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
4. Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan. The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
5. When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
6. Make sure that everything found is checked, and click Remove Selected.
7. When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process,if asked to restart the computer,please do so immediately.
8. The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
9. Copy&Paste the entire report in your next reply.

I'm not sure what's happening. I DID NOT download like you told me to, I'm sorry, but it's because the icon suddenly disappeared. Does that mean the the virus is gone??

If you have downloaded the programs it is the virus.

Go to start> search> all files and folders> type in "Hijack This " with out the quotes and double click "Hijack this.exe", that should start the program.

Do the sames for Malwarebytes then double click Malwarebytes' Anti-Malwareware.

The Combofix log is clean other than the deletions. Is the computer running better?

A little cleanup needed.

Empty the restore folder. Go to start>control panel>system>system restore tab>check the box beside "turn off system restore>apply (takes a minute)>ok. Go back and uncheck the box to turn system restore back on>apply>ok.

Download ATF Cleaner from this link:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/ATF_Cleaner_d4949.html

Run ATF-Cleaner
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

It's much better thank you.
I'm running scans everyday, in case of anything..
If anything goes wrong again, would it be okay if I contact you?
..and is there anything else that needs to be done?
Also, what do I do with all the programs you asked me to download? Would it be okay if I uninstalled/deleted them?

Your computer is clean. Just make a new post if you have any problems.

You should consider adding "Spywareblaster" to your arsenol of antispyware tools, you can download it from this link Spywareblaster

Just download it,install it, and update it. Its free and runs in the background, so you don't actually run it, and re-writes malicious script before it can install on your computer. Look for updates weekly as there is no auto-update on the free version.

I have the same problem...i removed spyware using adaware and spybot but i am still receiving the windows popup saying there is a system alert. I downloaded hijackThis v2.0.2 and saved the log file. It is copied below. Please help.
