I had a similar problem last week. Windows Security popped up with a warning, but it was a fake. I ended up logging on to Microsoft website and hooked up by chat with a tech. I let him remotely control my computer and he got rid of it and downloaded microsoft antivirus and malware protection. Took him 3 1/2 hours, but it works great now. And it was free.

Spybot (free) quarantined something for me once that nothing else could remove.

XP Internet Security 2011 popped up on my computer yesterday. This program has taken over and will not allow me to surf the net. This program insists I purchase their anti-virus program for $60. Only then will I be able to resume surfing.

Does anyone know who this company is? Where they are located? I want to find an attorney and sue them for thief of services.

And if you know how to delete their program, I would like to know that also.

I have tried System Restore which has worked in the past but this company has b locked even that. System Restore will not work anymore. Mytwo options are to pay someone to wipe my disk clean and start over or buy a Vista and start over.

ny help would be appreciated.
