Your system is infected with a rogue antivirus program. It is called "rogue" because it pretends to be A Good Guy but is really Evil. Do not pay them! If you are infected with XP Antivirus or Antivirus 2009/10, here are removal steps: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/malw...antivirus-2009 http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic154529.html (earlier versions) Removal instructions for Antivirus 2010: http://www.malwarebytes.org/forums/i...showtopic=6703 Removal instructions for Antivirus 2009: http://www.malwarebytes.org/forums/i...showtopic=5178 These may work for you and all may be well. However, in many cases the computer will also be infected with Zlob and/or Vundo trojans and protected by a rootkit. These machines are extremely difficult to clean. If your machine is one of these cases, either get guided help at one of the specialty forums below OR back up your data and do a clean install of Windows. It is your choice. If you are unsure how to back up your data or how to do a clean install, you can take your machine to a local computer professional. I don't recommend using BigComputerStore/GeekSquad types of places.
