pop up notification problem

[Guest]

I am using Norton anti virus. When my computer was infected by a spyware,
both norton and windows detected it. I used norton to remove the spyware, but
there is a pop up notification from windows that doesn't go away no matter
what i do. The notification balloon says:

"Windows has detected spyware infection!

It's recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data loss,
windows will now download and install the most up-to-date antispyware for you.

Any one knows how to fix this?

When you said Norton and Windows, do you mean with windows defender or
what?, norton is Anti-Virus program not Anti-Spware.
You need a special Anti-Spyware to protect and clean your computer from
malware/Grayware.
Try to download the free Lavasoft and Spybot S&D and do not run Spybot in
Tea Timer.

Your computer is still not clean. That message is from malware.

Go through the preparatory steps here:

Then do the specific steps here:

Make sure you do the finishing up work also.

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting
this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a professional
computer repair shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA).
