i have mcafee &windows security says my computer is safe yet i keep getting messages that i have viruses help?
I keep getting pop ups that say that there are all kinds of trojans, and viruses attacking my computer. when i scan my system with mcafee there is nothing to be found. when i click the button from the popup to "fix" my system, i am immediately given the opportunity to buy a new computer security system from something called Internet Security 2010

Ignore the pop-ups
and NEVER buy ANYTHING that is advertised by way of pop-ups!
Its VERY suspect that any advertiser would make a pop-up appear to alert you to YOUR system having somekinda problem and then try to sell you the fix for said problem.
Some trips tend to give Capitalism a BAD NAME!
all i have to say is that AVG protects agains all these threats if you want to know to download it post another question.

that pop up is a virus you should get spybot and run it immediately and if that doesnt work run trend micro housecall
things reported by internet security 2010 are not real. that program is a malware and a fraud. it loads those pop-ups to lure you into buying the fake thing. mcafee is not supposed to deal with frauds like this, you need anti-spyware for that. for now you can delete internet security 2010 using removal guide http://www.spywarevoid.com/remove-internet-security-2010-internetsecurity-2010-removal-help.html
