What was the 'antivirus scan pop up'?

There's something going around (especially when you are watching movies online). I called Dell, and she said this company has hacked into the ads on the sites. It makes it so that it looks as though your computer has been infected and their particular software can remove it. This is not the case. They have actually faked it so that it LOOKS as though it's infected, however the only thing that infected your computer was THEM. You can find it on this site: http://www.softsailor.com/how-to/37848-how-to-uninstall-remove-security-suite-virus-removal-guide-2.html

That's the only thing I can think of.

Just thought Id let you know.

When it infected my old laptop (the other day), it wouldn't even let me hit ctrl alt delete, or msconfig. It took over EVERYTHING!

Hopefully that hasnt happened to yours. It was a pain to get rid of.

Remove Mcafee..thats right,delete it. Then go download Microsoft Security Essentials. Why mess with anything else? It's 100% free, just as good and guess what? it is made by the same people that made your OS..win/win.

The Windows 7 firewall is a REAL firewall and WSE kicks butt. It is all you ever need. Mcafee my not like it but their days are numbered.

 

The first thing i do when i get a new system,before i even turn it on is I get the windows CD and reinstall. I start freash. You can uninstall Mcafee but it will not remove everything...keep that in mind.

I agree, get rid of it and get Microsoft Security Essentials.
