You'll have to read McAfee's help files on how to remove malware. It should be self explanitory. I'd advise to restart the computer in safe mode http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorial... and run the virus scan that way. Also download Ad-aware and run that in safe mode too. Make sure first that all the defitions are updated.



If the pop up is telling you that you have a virus and you need virus protect pro or virus cleaner to delete it, then you may need more than just an antivirus.



Download HijackThis (http://www.download.com/Trend-Micro-Hija... run it with a log and post it on a tech forum like this one: http://www.techsupportforum.com/security... and await help.



In the end, it might be easier to reinstall windows, especially if you have a rootkit.
