06 Aug 08 a virus that has troubled me most recently

just a few hours ago i got affected by the virus that displays

“Attention[Name]! Some dangerous viruses detected in your system. Microsoft Windows XP files corrupted. This may lead to the destruction of important files in C:\WINDOWS. Download protection software now!
Click OK to download the antispyware. (Recommended)”

in pop-up windows. there is an option of selecting “Yes” or “No”.
whenever i tried to open a folder in explorer it showed this message quite frequently & got same problem in IE.
i have Norton antivirus. but it couldn’t remove it. i searched the net & found that antiviruses even like Mcafee cannot solve the problem.
after more searching i found a solution.
download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. it is free to download. install & scan your PC. repair & when asked to reboot do it.
after rebooting you will find everything ok.
i used this software & have successfully removed the virus from my computer.
