Answer:
you are being targeted by adware .to buy a product. go off line and delete any and all programs with antivirus 2008 or 2009 as part off their name. then run "ccleaner" it's free .to remove the temp files and cookies that are running the adware,it will also remove the normal temp files and cookies you amass when web browsing.freeing up memory also. this will help.
