Oh my goodness! I’m experiencing the same problem! I heard that there are some programs that can delete it, but I do not know the names of them. However, I do know that it is a virus that infects your computer and then it tricks you into paying for their services; so basically, they are breaking your computer, and your paying them to fix it. If you research programs for that, then you will probably find some goods ones to uninstall it.
Good luck!

One word, Reformat.
DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THOSE ADD SITES! They are just scams.
Only back up what you REALLY need.

1) Um downloading spyware/anti-viruses after you get a virus won’t help… the best thing to do is call in a computer expert to totally restart your computer. I’m not sure if it’ll delete all the programs you had on your computer, but i’ve heard that they can restore it back to a certain time… like a time machine. But it really depends on the person.
2) If you have a BACKUP disk, this will be useful. This disk can be used to clear out a certain disk drive. For example, if your computer is affected in Hard Drive C, you use the backup disk and completely restart the C Drive so the virus disappears.
Good luck with your computer, hope this helped
Oh, and buy norton ghost for your computer, it’s very useful :]

Well don’t download anything from it first off.
try to remove the program because its just trying to scare you into buying the program and then when you do it downloads addware spyware onto your computer.
if you cant get rid of it back up all your files.
and settings and restore your computer you should be back at factory settings and then you can put all your backed up files and settings onto your comptuer

Here is link to a website that will give you directions on how to remove this from your computer. It has automatic instructions. If you cannot open any programs that will be useless, so it also includes manual removal. You can print them from your friends computer then follow them when you get back to your own.

You have a fake alert programme which is Malware. You may or may not have conficker worm, we will soon find out. Download, update and install Malwarebytes free edition. http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-An…
If you can complete these actions you do not have conficker worm – so that is one threat sorted out!
Turn off system restore and boot into safe mode. Run Malwarebytes and quarantine anything found.
Reboot into normal mode and if all is Ok turn on system restore and create a manual restore point.
