It seems that I also have the Winfixer problem, the pop ups started about a week ago. Also, a couple days ago, I ran Ad-Aware and it found registry keys for "Virtumonde" malware. I am able to select all the problems and delete without trouble, however, upon a rescan, the Virtumonde keys reappear. My computer has been running normally as far as I can tell, except for the random pop-ups for Winfixer.

Glad to hear the problem is fixed. I'll leave you with my prevention tips. :)

I suggest that you download these programs to help keep the computer clean:

Spyware Blaster - Blocks bad ActiveX items from installing on your computer. Spyware Blaster runs silently in the background.
ie-spyad - Puts over 12,000 bad URLs into your restricted sites for Internet Explorer.
Google Toolbar - Blocks many unwanted pop-ups in Internet Explorer.
Firefox - 'Safer' alternative to the Internet Explorer web browser.
ZoneAlarm - Free firewall program if you currently are not using one.

Here are two very good and free malware scanners:

Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
AdAware SE v1.06
Set-up Instructions for Spybot S&D; and Adaware SE

If you have them already, check to make sure that they are the newest version.

Update these regularly.

You may also want to read the following posts to learn how to better secure your computer.

Be sure to keep Windows and your Anti-virus updated.
