    First, CLEAN your system restore so malware can't come back. Right-Click "My Computer' and select Properties. Under the "System restore' tab, check 'disable.' Then Try Spybot s/d. Superantispyware free. and an online scan @ bitdefender.com

    How to use SmitFraudFix

    *SmitFraudFix is a tool that S!Ri created to remove rogue anti-spyware applications that utilize Trojans to issue fake

    taskbar security alerts or that change your background in order to scare you into purchasing the full commercial version of their software..

    These infections are difficult to remove and are usually bundled with so much other malware,

    that traditional antispyware or antivirus programs have difficult completely cleaning these infections.

    Due to this a specialized tool was created in order to help a user clean their system of these infections.

    I believe it is called

    Microsoft Security Suite - that is warning you ABOUT something. Click it and find out.

    Or it can be one of these

    Anti Spyware Pro

    Anti Vuris Pro

    or one of thier sisters.. ROUGE

    But if i was a betting man, I'd bet the first...

    Your computer maybe infected with adware.

    Try New GarbageClean antispyware from http://www.securemywindows.com/

    It is web based and doesn't require installation and it is completely free.
