Okay will do, but should I be worried that I am in infected? Or is it just a dumb pop up?

Ah.. henydiah, you need to stop handing out bad adivce, nothing in the bios will give you a virus alert and using firefox will not do anything for this guy as the system is already infected.

Go to the sticky post in this forum, there is a removing malware guide. Should have been the first place to check before posting. You have a very common fake anti-virus malware.

hang-the-9 is correct. A few thorough malware scans and you'll be good to go.

Thanks for all the advice, I went ahead and got Kaspersky Internet Security and did a full scan and it found nothing. So I guess my pc is fine. I guess thats just a false pop up. B/c my pc only has 1 hardrive, no floppy drive. But the pop up shows 2 hardrives, and 1 floppy.

Kaspersky missed it. There are certain ways to scan for malware, that are better than others. Follow the malware guide in my signature.

malewarebytes free will fix this!

 

[Arterus]

Okay after reading the guide I decided to run Kaspersky in safe mode with the connection like it said. When running Kaspersky in safe mode it found the threats and fixed them. Also just to be sure that Kaspersky found them all, I installed malewarebytes and did the scan in safe mode and it said zero threats found. So Kaspersky got them all once I ran them in safe mode b/c in normal it found none. Thanks so much for all the help, now I can be stress free.
