When I browse the internet, a message box appears in the screen and says that Win antispyware found adware.?
I am using Windows XP. The dialogue box appears automatically and causes interuption and irritation to me. It says "Your computer was affected with adware or spyware. Win Antispyware performs free scan of your system. Download it for free".. Actually i dont need that. When I close that message box, instead of closing it opens anoter dialogue box asking me to download the Win antispyware. When I try to close that second message box, it opens a third, fourth and fifth message boxes. I think this WinAntispyware itself is a spyware. I cannot remove it from "Add /remove Programs from the Control Panel. Help me how to completely delete this???
