My new system tray (virus) constantly makes warning that I have somekind virus in my site and should buy their product. When I right or left click that lowerright bottom tray it just goes straight to this site. It's somekind of latvian virus crime site which robs money from people and I STRONLY recommend going there with firewall: http://www.virusprotectpro.com

And my panda antivirus/firewall doesn't find anything. So could you recommend another program or can I remove that system tray manually? I'm about to reinstall windows since I always hate when my pc game interrups cos of that constant tray warning.

I just came in to say that topic is one of the worst puns I've seen in a long time. Good job.

Google's first hit:

EDIT: You know what? Computing.Net won't let me post it. No kidding. I have no idea what the powers that be have against precise security.com, but the grudge keeps the link from working.

Thanks for help, I got it off now. I did it with spyware doctor and it found 112 other infections as well and my win works now great. It was all my foult since I forgot to put firewall back on after game.

I was also bit suprised that it wasn't that rare site. Isn't there possibility to close sites like that or sue them?

OK...nevermind about my response. i think you should download adware and spybot. don't forget to scan your ports to see what's open or closed.
