If you are presented with a screen that indicates any of or even looks like the screen captures above, or you know its not your Antivirus program, immediately use Alt and F4 at the same time until all windows close, (do not click anything). Power off your computer the normal way, wait until the computer turns off, then unplug the power cord and hold your power button in for about 30 secondsIf this happens to you, do not continue to use your computer, if you do, you may risk further infection.

To the right are a few examples of fake alerts and anti-virus scans which are designed to be very convincing and even look like a legitimate Antivirus program. Remember, interacting with these programs at any level, even clicking the X in the upper right corner of your window, will lead to prompt infection.
A typical fake anti-virus program will appear to run a virus scan on the system. It will falsely claim that it found viruses and will require the user to register the product to clean the system. In the meantime, it is installing, trojans, malware, adware, spyware, worms and potentially other unwanted programs onto your system. These programs range from being a simple annoyance to a serious security threat to your computer and network.
