Sometimes you can get these messages that ask you to do a Free system scan with their product, then you scan and they come up with a list of threats they have found on your comp. Then they say you cannot delete the little buggas until you sign up for their full version, then they infect you with trojans etc etc.
Best if you can identify who or what program is giving you these alerts. Sometimes it sounds like a legit spyware removal prog. Never click on for free spyware tests. This is how these things can start. Once you clean some of this shit up, always go to Control panel, ..Add / remove progs and look to see if theres anything you dont recognise or like, and delete it. Sometimes go into your Prog Files and look for folders still left lingering with small traces of shit after it has supposedly been removed and manually delete.
Looks like your making progress anyway,...sometimes this takes a while and you may need seveal attempts and tools, but its better that losing all your shit on a new install. Unlesss of course its only photos and stuff which you can back up to disk and then reload.
