Lippsman,

I don't think I actually downloaded anything recently but my computer is now infected with the Antivirus System Pro.  I did some research online and it seems like most links are forwarded to another site where you download a scanning software but still has to purchase it in order to remove the Antivirus System Pro.

Any idea Lipps or anyone else who has experienced this annoying virus before.

Thanks

thanks Lipps...fixed it.

Now my question is how the hell did I get that Antivirus System Pro anyway?  I didn't download anything from any suspicious website.  It seems like Antivirus is affiliated with lots of porn sites because I got lots of porn site pop ups.  Just want to find out more so I can stay far away from it.

Porn and illegal download sites are the places you have a high chance of getting things like this.  You don't even have to click on anything.
 
Malwarebytes should of taken care of a good deal of other sypware infections also.  How many infections did it pick up?
