    Default need help with virus or spyware program

    I already contacted msn and sony and no one cares to help.

    The last 3 days every time I sign onto the internet using my msn browser I get this anti-spyware ad. It has 2 different ads and one is strait-up porn. Every time i tried to click the msn icon a message box would pop stating it was important i read the content. I tried to erase it with my spysweeper program and norton antivirus.

    Is this a dangerous situation? I am no longer using my msn browser - in fact if i can uninstall i will.

    Please let me know what to do about this situation and if my computer and internet usage during the 2 days I used msn be in danger.

    THANKS

    Do you have "Spybot" on your system? If no, then i suggest you download that. www.filehippo.com

    safety.live.com
    do a free scan from there
    then housecall.trendmicro.com
    After you run both of those that should catch pretty much anything that was on your system. Once it is clean, feel free to protect it in the future however you like.
