I have been seeing this for what seems like at least two years. When they pop up, I don't attempt to close it (I think that just activates it even more). The FBI doesn't tell you what to do when this happens. I click the Start button and do a restart, then an anti-virus rescan.

It seems that the bad guys keep making little modification that can get past McAfee and Microsoft Security Essentials that I have had as protection.

Whoops! Yes they do, but I wouldn’t even try to close the browser but just go straight to restart!

Yes, I never click on those, close them, etc.

I “force quit”, do a virus check, restart.
