Default You have spyware in your PC

Whenever you see a banner like this, ignore it because it is a static banner and technically it is not possible to scan your PC and post results in a banner. If you click it, it will take you to download page of their so called spy ware cleaner so be careful clicking such links and banners.

When I was n00b, I had no idea about such banners and popups so I clicked them and some very stupid toolbar was installed in my internet explorer and also the homepage was hijacked (wasn't able to change it).

I hate the banners that look like popups, but they shake. So annoying!

Usually if you have a pop up saying that, a genuine one, you do have it and it's usually the program saying that you have it. You use that program to scan your computer and instead of deleting it it's adding on.

Such pop-ups are really horrible , they are themselves spyware hosts.One should just simply avoid such banners n popups.

Most of these banners are always a lead on to some other website which may be critically harmful for your PC
