    Default Fake Alerts

    Hi!

    My computer keeps sending me fake alerts about a needed "registry cleaner" and "critical errors" that should be fixed and tells me to visit certain web pages in order to fix the "problem"
    i' ve tried spybot,AVG and ad-aware but didn't succeed in removing it.
    What would you recommend?
    Thanx for your time!

    God,it's really annoying,they keep coming every 2 damned minutes

    My logfile is this:

    Welcome to Safer Networking, if you still need help and are not receiving it elsewhere, it appears you have missed some important instructions our administrator has posted at the top of the forum, especially this: "BEFORE you POST" Mandatory Steps Before Requesting Assistance http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
    All advice given is taken at your own risk.Please read and follow all instructions and post all required logs or reports, anything less will slow your process. Use "Post Reply" to post the information in the instructions and stay in the same topic.

    Update Your Windows XP.
    You are currently using an unpatched version of Windows XP.
    Before attempting to remove malware, it is CRITICAL that you update to Service Pack 1a.
    Get SP1a here : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...1/default.mspx
    You should also get SP2, but NOT NOW, rather only after your machine is clean.
    After updating your Windows to SP1a, post a new HijackThis log please, using the Post Reply button.

    Thanks
