I would suggest that you ignore any popups with messages like that. That's NOT a windows alert.

try going into start/run and msconfig
Uncheck all EXCEPT your AV and your firewall.
Then reboot to normal mode and if you need some free cleaners, click on the red link in my signature, they are all listed on one page.
Run them all, then do an online scan with either bitdefender or Kaspersky.
Some HELP in posting on Cnet plus free progs and instructions Glad to Help!
