    Microsoft is not the one sending this message. You got some spyware/adware, or whatever it's called.

    yup - thats a virus for sure ... happened to me, dont fall for it - the blue screen isnt even real.......

    run a few free programs to debug - like spybot ... I like that one myself, although in some cases it says that some cannot be taken off unless you run as administrator, and I cant figure out how to do that - damn vista crap..

    !!

    I have spyware program its Trend micro. I turned off the Microsoft virus program that is on my PC and has its own mind. I shut it all off and you know what its telling me to turn it on. I swear, these programs have a mind of there own.

    No matter what I've done Microsoft security alerts still pop up. All that's left is to pull out my shotgun and give my PC a headache. lol

    As for Trend Micro is good a program no problems with it. It this Microsoft program I have problems with.

    OK, fine. Microsoft sent you this message, and they are to blame.

    You can turn off the MS Security Alerts in the Control Panel.
    Go to Security Center and on the left where it says Change the way you're alerted, click on that and then on don't show me anything.
