Pop up cant get rid of

Expand Post »
Very common thing i am sure and was able to get rid of others before but i have this popup for a virus removal that looks very similar to the Windows security shields, it keeps popping up for a download from netsecurityonline.com and powerfulvirusremoval2008.com and I cant get rid of it even with the spyware removal I have been using. Any suggestions on how to remove this. Thanks

this is the links for downloads that keeps popping up.

Re: Pop up cant get rid of

Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (http://www.majorgeeks.com/Malwarebyt...are_d5756.html) to your desktop.

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* At the end, be sure to checkmark the Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform full scan, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad.
* Post the log back here.

Make sure that you restart the computer.

The log can also be found here:
