Default Virus' have been found on your computer

Anyone else receiving this pop up while scanning posts here? I have had it now for three straight days. The only way to get rid of the message is to ctrl/alt/del and close ie.

Might want to clean out the temp file on your computer also. Had this pop up from another site the other day and nothing would fix it. Couldn't get onto any other sites online either. Ran Norton and that didn't fix it. Finally cleaned out the temp file and problem solved.

Yes, mine has a bad virus right now, one where they want your credit card info! DO NOT GIVE! There is a way to fix it, my son sent me the directions and my brother is gonna fix it for me. It's a scam!
