Please help me!!! Real AV virus?
Hi, The other day, I got a red circle with a white cross in it in my system tray which says "Warning! Security report Your computer is infected! It is recommended to start spyware cleaner tool".

The little Real AV icon keeps popping up and saying that I have a virus detected and that I have possible security issues.

My Internet browser keeps popping up to real-antivirus.com and prompts me to download the program.

Right now, I am trying to do a Microsoft Windows Live scan to try to help. But I'm not sure if that'll get it. It's gotten to the point now where my background screen is also gone and will not let me change it.

So if you could please help me I would be very grateful!!!!
