have a box in the middle of my desktop that states, warning, your computer
is infected with spyware.......
There is no box to close it, and I can not click on it to delete it.
I have changed the background, and it stays right in the mniddle of the
screen. I have booted up in safe mode and it does not appear, however I can
not find it, to remove it.
I have run ad-aware and Symantec, and removed anything that was on the
computer, but I can not get ride of this box. any suggestions?

Thank you both, but whose advice should I be listening to?


You should be listening to Nepatsfan. Although he's not an MVP, he
almost always posts good advice here.

"The Real Truth MVP," on the other hand, is an out-and-out fake. He
claims to be an MVP, but constantly refuses to provide the slightest
evidence that his claims of being an MVP are true; nobody here
believes him. His site is filled with software that he apparently
"appropriated" from other people's work, and his advice is always
suspect, at best. There are reports of his having p*orn on his site,
although I haven't looked for it and can't personally attest to its
being there. He constantly changes his posting name (he was originally
PC Butts) in an effort to escape people's killfiles, and that behavior
is one of the standard ways of identifying a troll. You would do well
to ignore anything he says.

Considering you posted the same questions 3 times you don't trust anyone.
Mine works and since nobody else has offered any advice on how to fix it
except me and nepatsfan you choices are limited. I know what my program does
because I wrote it.

Did you ever read about the guy who sued for slander because of what was
said about him
on a help forum just like this.........he won.
"I spurned his advances towards me."
that would be slander....

Ignore posts made by the person called Peter, he is a stalker who's been
obsessed with me for years ever since I spurned his advances towards me.
You going to sue me now.
