Okay to brief you, for the past few days I have been battling the wonderful IWON virus and all its little MyWebSearch integrations and its roots in my registry, I have finally managed to rid it to the point that Kaspersky, Spybot and MalwareBytes are no longer picking up anything. Great! But now this pops up:

And I am concerned because it pops up whenever I open a page that requires a username password login! D:

Should I be calling my bank and locking my account? How can I get rid of whatever this thing is?

Agh!

Hello,

Please read this information about TeaTimer:
FAQ 33 (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/33.html) and FAQ 34 (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/34.html).
If you surf the web and without any user interaction the Teatimer pops up and warns about a registry change it is better to "deny", but if you install something by yourself it is OK to "allow" the change.
The tutorial (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/tutorial/index.html) (point 8) on our homepage should also help explaining.

Best regards
