Hey puter dudes

My puter at the house is giving me a warning that it has been invaded with spyware, and recommends that I download a blocker (I don't recall the name,
I'm at work now). I don't know if this is legit or not, what should I do?? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
As always remember "The computer Illiterate are people too!!!"(just slower)
Thanx in advance,
Rick

RLW, you are seeing anti spyware adware...

In other words, they are trying to market their product by first attacking you with what they are then trying to help you with. Like paying protection. It will never stop.

Try either one of these...or both. You've probably got more stuff on there.

I like the SPYBOT software...it cleaned up my PC.
