Solve : What is this POPUP????

Answer»

Since yesterday,I keep receiving a popup (even though I have them blocked). It starts out with  WARNING! Channel SETTING. Receiver Channel Changed. Then it goes on to tell me how to CHANGE the ID and Channel Settings. They want me to push the button on the back of the keyboard and or mouse.They go o n to say if I don't push the buttons, my keyboard and mouse will quit working in 30 seconds. (still work).The warning looks fake, even though I do have a wireless keyboard and mouse. I've called AOL, Gateway, my internet provider, Best Buy, and Geek Squad. No one can tell me what it is. It pops up every 3 seconds. I've ran all the virus scanners etc..they all say nothing was found. Can someone PLEASE tell me what this is and how to get rid of it. ThanksPinkBlazer.....  Have you tried opening the task manager to see if it shows up in there ?
Or perhaps a hijackthis scan POSTED here will show us what it it ..... But it's some sort of malware .


dl65  Does it pop up in Safe MODE?  Sounds like a virus or spyware to me.  You say "virus scanners". How about antispyware scanners?  Pop over to any of these sites & download / update the programs and run them.
