Has anyone hear heard of "Personal Antivirus"? Apparently, it's a program that attaches to a computer and tries to get you, the consumer, to purchase their product. It's constantly "popping up" saying your computer is infected with miscellaneous viruses, etc.

We have Norton/Symantec - I ran that program and it didn't detect anything - maybe that's not good, cause it didn't say anything about this Personal Antivirus.

If anyone here does know anything about it - how can I get rid of it? I found instructions online from bleepingcomputer.com, but I don't know if that is "reputable" and don't want tol make it worse.
