OT, but I use the old "StopZilla" (AVM-2013) program which was the ONLY one
that found and fixed that popup telling you that you need to pay to have it
removed. Norton & McAfee said my system was fine. Then, after about two
minutes, the pop up popped up again!
StopZilla bagged it and I've never had a problem since I installed it. It's
not free, but you get a lifetime purchase and free updates which happen
about once a week as they keep up with the latest malware/spyware etc.

You are very luck, Phil -- assuming you run Windows. I just spent three
days fixing a neighbor's Win7 computer that was full of trojans, viruses
and malware. I *think* finally got it. He, also, had no anti-virus
software.
I installed a (free) virus scanner and an annit-malware program so he
should be OK. I have four instances of Windows (one is 8.1) and do the
same on mine.
Mac OS X seems to be another story; my two Macs have never had a virus or
malware problem
