I have this "windows security alert" that pops up every 10 minutes...It doesn't seem to be doing anything harmful, YET, but it is very annoying. I have tried cleaning in Safe mode with AVG, Spybot, SuperAntiSpam, Smitfraud - which apparently is another malware itself (now deleted). I have Hijack this but not sure how to use it effectively or what exactly I am looking for...Please help or suggest a method to fix. I have read various threads but all seem different, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
