My computer keeps getting a pop up about a Trojan infected worm?
My laptop keeps getting a pop up that pops up everytime I open my email, or try to send a message, or try to access my address book. It says Trojan.Win32.Obuscalated. Please help, how do I get rid of it. I don't know what to do. I cannot do anything within my email without it popping up every 2 seconds. My pop up blocker is on. I ran a mcafee scan and now my laptop virus protection program is aware of it ; however, I cannot get rid of these pop ups proclaiming it every 2 seconds. Please advise, Thanks...Oh I forgot, it also keeps offering me a chance to download a software that will take care of the pop up, but I ain't buying that, I refuse to download that software. Thanks for all who help me!

OH NO!!!! You have the trojan horse! That's a reallllly bad virus! You should contact your computer helper now!!!!
Trojan.Win32.Obfuscated.gx (Trojan.Win32.agent.akk) is a fake trojan designed to scare users and enforce them to purchase rogue anti-spyware products such as IEDefender and AntiSpyPro. Obfuscated.gx may already come bundled with another software or it may appear through your browser security holes. Obfuscated.gx may change desktop settings, hijack web browser and display an annoying icon in the system tray. -- manual removal instructions:
The best way to get rid of trojans is using a best anti-spyware to protect your computer.Anti-Virus is not good at removing trojans,spywares and adwares. Top 5 anti-spywares reviews,comparisons and download links on http://remove-spywares.info/ You can download and scan your computer for free.
Your computer has a Smitfraud infection. Any "warnings" are fradulant and a scam. You are so really smart to ignore them.
The standard tool to remove this pest is SmitfraudFix. The full removal procedure and the free removal tool is here: http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix_En.php
Almost all "general purpose","all-in one" spyware and virus removal programs such as AVG, Norton, McAfee or Spybot S & D cannot remove it.
Go to the mcafee site and try to download some software from there because you definately have a virus...or you could back up all your info on CD's and then wipe your hard drive and reload everything.
