This message is not coming from Windows; your computer is still not free
of malware. Go through the following removal steps systematically:

Nick Skrepetos of SuperAdBlocker says that his program will get rid of
the spyaxe cr*p. You can d/l a fully-functional trial of SuperAdBlocker
and then uninstall it afterwards if you don't want it.

Thanks for this...this malware seems to be getting around. I checked on here
for answers to this very question. The adware also produces pop-ups and
reconfigures your Internet Explorer's homepage to the same company. Clever
little bug because it uses the Microsoft Update logo in the system tray next
to your clock making you think it's an official security notice from the
Microsoft Security Suite that comes with XP SP2.
