 Wow I pretty much just infected my computer.
Last night I was going to get on the computer, when all of a sudden this program called "Personal Antivirus" popped up and said to downoad it because I could have tons of viruses that have infected my computer. Stupidly, I downloaded it. It scanned the computer for viruses, and it said I had 60. So, I was SO CLOSE to upgrading it to get rid of the so called "viruses" on my computer. Luckily, my friend whose dad works on computers said I actually downloaded spyware. So he told me about this CCleaner website which cleaned unused files out of my computer and my computer runs faster now. Sadly, Personal Antivirus did not go away. I even clicked "uninstall" and the spyware did not go away. So I was looking up how to get rid of Personal Antivirus and I was said to download a program called Spyware Doctor and it actually blocked some spyware. I have to register to get rid of it, but I don't want to take any chances just in case.
If Personal Antivirus EVER pops up randomly on your computer, DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT! It's a pain to get rid of. And the bad part is that the spyware steals files and passwords and things such as that.

What did you use to remove it? I don't really want to register for anything.
