Spyware Pop Up Removal

Asked by CDirenzi in Anti-Spyware, Internet Advertising, Desktop Anti-Virus

Tags:

About every half hour I get an alert box that pops up and says "ATTEENTION! If your computer is infected, you could suffer data loss, erratic PC behavior, PC freezes and creashes... Do you want to install Antivirus 2009 to scan your computer for malware now?"  When I press cancel, it takes me to scanner-pwrantivirus.com.  (see images below)

I have run Adaware about 10 times over the last couple of days and I can't get this to stop.  Any ideas?
