I got this popup that says i have been infected by a virus and it sends me
to a website to scan my computer for free. it gives me a security warning and
has put an extra toolbar called protective toolbar on ie7. i found in ad &
remove softwarea new program called system alert popup and when i try to
remove it it says i have to reboot before i can. When i do this it just
repeats the same message not letting me erase it. another box comes up and
says i am not protected from a version of spybot MXt Trojan. Hellp!!!!

Hi

Try searching for any spyware you may have on your system with the following
programs:

Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/
CWShredder - http://aumha.org/downloads/cwshredder.zip
Spy Sweeper - www.webroot.com
Ad-Aware - www.lavasoftusa.com

Try SpyWareBlaster to stop intrusions:

Also see the following links:

Also run a virus-check on your system with the latest definitions for your
anti virus program.
