I have been warning them for weeks about this. I have begun using Ad Blocking software now for this site because it is unsafe to do otherwise.
I know - I've been reading your inquiries.
For others reading to beat this problem - goto malwarebytes.org and install the latest version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
I'm working on the fix now - will update after.

Got that Security 2012 crap yesterday and I had 4-5 screens opening while trying to connect to the net. Had to give up and buy another computer. Been trying to restore my old puter to no avail.

Revert to my Posts #4 and #5 - they worked out OK for me...

CT, the vast majority of the people here aren't just getting warnings of viruses, they are getting viruses themselves! I got nailed with a re-direct virus as well as that fake anti-virus software virus.
I really hope you guys can figure out what's going on here... this is really bad.
Yea. It's something... and something pretty vicious.
When my virus happened - my sportsbook was changed to B-Radddddddddd Sportsbook.
So... yea.... it's something....

Of course once you click the fake antivirus popup, it will begin to do its dirty work. You’ve essentially given it permission to override your real antivirus, and by then it’s too late. It really isn’t your antivirus program that’s the problem. It’s just that this virus is super sneaky, and it knows how to trick you into installing it.
Sometimes the fake antivirus program is attached to other things, like toolbars, or javascript. So you might give it permission to install itself that way too, and never know that you did it. A lot of viruses are spread that way. Even though virus protection is getting more sophisticated, so are the hackers. They will trick you into installing their viruses in one way or another!

Six Estonians and a Russian were charged Wednesday with infecting computers, including NASA machines, with malware as part of an online advertising scam that reaped at least $14 million.
The Internet fraud, which took place between 2007 and October 2011, involved redirecting users searching for websites such as iTunes, Netflix and even the US tax collection agency to other sites.
The six Estonians -- Vladimir Tsastsin, 31, Timur Gerassimenko, 31, Dmitri Jegorov, 33, Valeri Aleksejev, 31, Konstantin Poltev, 28, and Anton Ivanov, 26, -- were arrested in Estonia on Tuesday and the United States will seek their extradition, US officials said.
Andrey Taame of Russia, 31, remains at large.
According to the indictment unsealed by the US attorney for the Southern District of New York, the seven engaged in a "massive and sophisticated scheme that infected at least four million computers located in over 100 countries."
Around 500,000 of the infected computers were in the United States, according to the indictment, and at least 10 belonged to the US space agency NASA.
The indictment said the group engaged in "click hijacking fraud," by directing the user of an infected computer who clicks on a search result to a website different than the one they wanted.
A search for the website of the US tax collection agency at www.irs.gov would reroute a user, for example, to the website of a tax preparation service, generating a payment to the defendants under an advertising contract.
"These defendants gave new meaning to the term 'false advertising,'" US Attorney Preet Bharara said in a statement.
"They were international cyber bandits who hijacked millions of computers at will and rerouted them to Internet websites and advertisements of their own choosing -- collecting millions in undeserved commissions for all the hijacked computer clicks and Internet ads they fraudulently engineered."
The arrests were the result of a two-year investigation by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation code-named "Operation Ghost Click" that involved the cooperation of the authorities in Estonia and the Netherlands.
The seven were each charged with five counts of computer intrusion and wire fraud, crimes which can draw sentences of between five and 30 years in prison.
Tsastsin was also charged with 22 counts of money laundering.
