Goddamn pop up won't go away.
 
My dads computer keeps getting a popup that says something along the lines of System error, a trojan has been detected and can lead to corrupt files. It pops up about 15 times a minute. The top of the pop up says File secure 2.1 . It has a desktop icon to run a computer scan with file secure if you click ok on the popup, but it just tells you to pay for it, then run another scan. I have run scans with McAfee home edition, and with Ad-Aware free 2007 and found nothing, so i don't think there really is a trojan. When i go to control panel to delete this File secure program it starts the uninstall process but just kinda sits there. It won't uninstall. I have made sure no part of the program is running, and i have restarted the computer before and after trying to unistall it, But the mother fucker is still there. Someone help me....

Oh haha, when the program is running, it tells you what the trojan is. Its a porn Trojan lol.

HAHAHAHA no. my dad did it, he is a dumbass. Im trying to fix it. I have my own laptop he isn't allowed to touch. And somehow it hasn't had a problem yet. I run a McAfee scan and at least one full scan on Ad-Aware a day. Plus i have my firewall set to tight. And i don't download ---- that can ---- me up.

Go on Piratebay, find a win xp corp iso, burn that ----, enjoy your new windows you can put on whenever the ---- you want without even entering a cd key.

Or alternatively download Knoppix or another boot loaded Linux iso, put that ---- on a disc, load it up, surf your c: drive and kill that ---- without having anything windows running.

I use HiJack This to delete the programs that are running that keep me from deleting it via AdAware. Then AdAware to clean up the rest. I generally don't have too many issues after that point. I have had one or two instances where I had to go into Window's Registry and delete files. That blew and took forever to fix.
