Shut down and reboot in safe mode with networking, then google for "microsoft antispyware virus."
It's going around and I think I got it from an add here as well.

Microsoft Security Essentials alerted me to a pair of "severe" worms when coming to the front page, page 1

This happened just a minute ago. This is the information on the threats:
www.microsoft.com...
www.microsoft.com...
It's possible (likely?) that this was already present on my system, but the warning took place precisely as I hit Enter and loaded the AboveTopSecret.com page, and I scan regularly and never had this before. Just posting it here for information purposes, in the event anyone else encounters this issue. Figured I should let you know just in case it somehow was related to ATS. Better safe than sorry and all that.

Last night, through Microsoft Security Essentials, a new program called Vista Internet Security 2012 hijacked my browser. For those of you unaware, it is a rogue program. I could not uninstall it or even open my browser to find out how to remove it. I was still connected to the internet but a friend had to send me another virus removal program as a file through messenger. I spent all evening removing it.
I could not even remove Microsoft Security Essentials, it was so frustrating. But today, it is working well.
