I Keep Getting System Alerts About Spyware

Hello Family:
I need some serious help. In the bottom tray I have this red X that's
flashing, then I keep getting these 'system alerts' that spyware was
detected, my laptop is running slow but the alerts are a freekin nuisance. I
have the latest McAffe Security and when I run a scan it says my system is
protected. If it is protected, then why am I getting these annoying alerts
every 5-10 seconds and how I PLEASE stop them.

HELP ME PLEASE!

The red X that is giving you "system alerts" is the malware. Since you
didn't mention the program that the "system alerts" is trying to get you to
buy (and don't buy it!), I can't give you specific removal instructions. Go
to this link and find the removal instructions for your malware:

Otherwise read the posting FAQ at BleepingComputer (or other specialty
forums listed below) and post a HijackThis log at one of them. *Not* here.

FWIW; My main desktop is in tech now with 3 major trojans that started
exactly like that. I may need to replace one of the hard drives. They steal
passwords and get very deep into your system very fast. I was not able to
clean it up after many hours and I do know most of the tricks. I'd suggest
you take the infected computer offline immediately and get it to a specialty
tech to clean out.
