Could someone help me out...

I have pops up coming up every 2-3 minutes ,even when I turned on the "Disable PopUps" setting in Trend Micro and IE. It's still coming up. And when I started my computer, I got a warning message saying "Your computer has various signs of viruses and malware!!! Your system needs to scan for virusses immediately!!"
Then a program called AntiSpyware 2009 came up.

I just closed out of the program since I know based on the spelling and grammar that it's malware itself. Has anyone ever gotten this before? I'm doing a Trend Micro scan right now and it found no threats on my system but the popups still appear. AntiSpyware and Trend Micro are not related with each other AFAIk.
Your computer is about to conk out. That "AntiSpyware 2009" if it was installed, try at all costs to delete it. If it doesn't delete, back up all your data and reinstall Windows. That has happened to me as well, so I knew exactly what to do. I hate viruses. :thumbdown:

Lamarr is absolutely correct. Your computer is virus infested. I would recommend backing up the important data, and reinstalling windows. I would go with Ad block for Firefox in the future. Sorry, Victor :(

I'm going along with the maybe. Even if you do a system restore, the virus will technically still be on your computer, because you're able to undo a system restore you just performed. You may be SOL if your antivirus program isn't able to remove it.

Well what if it came from a website. Like my dad goes to his video website that has a lot of viruses and pop-ups and that site might be the cuase. So system restore would put the cpu back to the state that it was before my dad visited the site but the virus would still be there?

the CPU is the processor btw. But yes, technically it's still there.

You could try spybot search and destroy. I have used it on others with computer problems like yours.

You could try spybot search and destroy. I have used it on others with computer problems like yours.

Listen to this person. Try spybot, and also try Adaware. You do not have viruses. You have spyware and/or adware. Those two programs will clean you right up. And as to why you keep geting these problems, its your fault. Your going to a website that keeps infecting you.

Exactly that seems to be the problem but my dad keeps thinking the spyware is coming from something else. :rolleyes:
