I'm tired of seeing this pop up, it just pops up in the middle of nowhere, Do you guys have any solutions? possibly? I've tried spybot, adaware, malwarebytes, and everyone of them seem to fail and say the computer's fine,
I've uninstalled mcaffe and i'm not going to install it again because it's not going to find anything either.

Did you google it? "virusremover2008 popup" (no quotes) there are a lot of pages explaining how to get rid of it.

This might help I don't know it's http://www.anti-spyware-101.com/download/SpyHunter-Scanner100873p2s5.exe Click and install and it is supposed to get rid of it.

I got it from this page, which also has manual instructions on how to get rid of it. http://www.anti-spyware-101.com/remove-virusremover2008

Good luck, it sounds a little nasty to get rid of. You download any codecs lately?

i agree with this. somehow, IE seems to let alot of popups/spyware through. not sure about firefox as i'm not a frequent user (just at uni) but that does a better job. opera does better still Smile.

otherwise, as int28 says, just google for a specific removal tool for that spyware. try also running computer in safe mode, and scanning with some antivirus.

which antispyware have you used? also try running these in safe mode. you also want might want to try "Hijack this" (its a program which identifies all programs running), which you can use to help identify where the problem is manually, but you should know what you're doing if you're going to use this program.
