I have 2 icons on the lower right hand side of my screen that appear to be spammed anti-virus programs that keep popping up and telling me i have a virus and to click on them to do a free test. One is a little yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it and the other is shield that changes from blue to red and has either a question mark or an X in it. I have tried my real anti-virus software (McAfee), ad-aware personal, and hi-jack this. Any one know how to get rid of these things?
