hey, i am being bombarded by popups hawking "spyware protect 2009
alert" purporting to warn me of an "infiltration alert", asking me to
click on "yes" to "block this attack", and accompanied by a "windows
security alert" that contains grammatical errors.


anybody know how to deal with this?


1. Click on "yes."

2. You will be directed to a website. Ignore any grammatical errors, you
elitist pig. These things are outsourced to Tajikistan. What do you expect?

3. Fill in your credit card information. Don't forget the date of
expiration, the security code, and the available balance (just for
security purposes). You also must supply the root password of your computer.

4. Click "I agree."

5. A Microsoft Security Patch will automatically install and your
worries are over.
