FYI it sounds like trojan.fakealert
also I recomend Avast! paired with Spybod Search and Destroy if you want free (Avast is quick to label archives with high compression ratios as "decompression bombs" though…)

FACT: Surfing the web and using email is a part of daily life.
FACT: Criminals capitalize on this to their advantage, flooding the Internet with over 100,000 new attacks every day, in an effort to steal your identity or turn your computer into a \zombie\ to launch email spam and other Internet crimes.
FACT: Over 70 million users worldwide trust ESET to defend themselves from these attacks.
ESET NOD32 Antivirus 4 is the most effective protection you can find to combat today\s huge volumes of Internet and email threats. It provides comprehensive antivirus and antispyware protection without affecting your computer\s performance.
Using advanced ThreatSense technology, ESET NOD32 Antivirus proactively protects you from new attacks, even during the critical first hours when other vendors\ products aren\t aware the attack even exists. ESET NOD32 Antivirus detects and disables both known and unknown viruses, trojans, worms, adware, spyware, rootkits and other Internet threats.
ESET NOD32 Antivirus is also one of the fastest antivirus solutions, so fast you won\t even notice it running. And it\s both incredibly easy to use yet simple to tailor for your specific needs.
Key Benefits
Protection from the Unknown â Award-winning ThreatSense technology uses multiple layers of threat detection to deliver the most effective protection possible against new attacks. And ThreatSense is smart; it raises far fewer annoying \false alarms\ than any other products that use heuristics.
Finds Malware Other AV Companies Missed â Typically when a new copy of ESET NOD32 replaces another antivirus product on a home computer the average user finds viruses or malware resident on the machine that were undetected by their previous antivirus product.
Built for Speed â ESET NOD32 Antivirus is lightning fast, so fast you won\t even notice it\s there. Even disk-intensive operations like performing a \full disk scan\ to run smoothly in the background while you work or play.
Easy on Your System â ESET NOD32 Antivirus is \lean and mean,\ typically using just 44 MB of memory, a fraction of what other products consume. Because it\s fast and \light,\ upgrading your existing antivirus protection to ESET NOD32 Antivirus can literally be like buying a new computer. And the new automatic energy-sipping battery mode lets you work or play longer.
Easy on You â ESET NOD32 Antivirus is easier to use than ever before. From its compact and intuitive user interface to its minimal use of alerts, you\ll be up and running in a snap.You will receive the best possible proactive detection against malware, without enduring excessive system slowdowns and alerts, reboots or annoying false alarms.
What\s New
Smarter Scanner â Threats don\t always enter your network in ways you expect. ESET NOD32 Antivirus inspects SSL-encrypted communication channels like HTTPS and POP3S and intelligently scans compressed files to find hidden threats other products miss. Proactive protection begins at the earliest point in system startup to ensure your computer is always secure.
Clean and Safe Email â Email scanning for Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Mozilla Thunderbird, Windows Live Mail, Windows Mail, and other POP3/IMAP mail clients, ensuring your email is free of viruses and other threats.
Removable Media Security â Threats can enter your PC from removable media such as USB thumb drives. For self-running media, ESET NOD32 Antivirus scans autorun.inf and associated files when the medium is inserted, in addition to scanning any file on any removable device when it is accessed, or during a full-scan of the media. Power users can adjust ESET NOD32 Antivirus to perform additional levels of scanning on removable media.
System Tools â ESET SysInspector and ESET SysRescue simplify diagnosing and cleaning of infected systems by allowing deep scans of system processes to find hidden threats, and creating bootable rescue CD/DVD or USB drives to help you repair an infected computer.
Self Defense â ESET NOD32 Antivirus has built-in technology to prevent malicious software from corrupting or disabling it, so you can rest assured your system is always protected.
Many Usability Improvements â ESET NOD32 Antivirus has numerous speed, security and usability upgrades.
* Energy-sipping battery mode extends laptop battery life without compromising security

Avast! Free is the best!
Avast is fine and so is AVG Free BUT..you’ll want to clean up any existing infection first if possible, so I’d recommend downloading Malwarebytes and running it. I will likely take out the Antivirus pro 2009 stuff.
Contact me on CrossLoop for a brief gratis session if you can’t self help.
Go to http://www.avast.com and download it its free and I love it use it myself
