Whom do I contact to penalize an ad for installing a Spyware and my computer now is disabled?

May 29th, 2010

Antonio Jr. R asked:


My computer suddenly will not operate after and ad shows up asking me to buy their Anti-spyware. There is no address shown but the ad says it is contaminated. It was perfect before this ad showed up, but the ad tells me to order their spyware or I will not be able to use my computer. What now? I cannot open any program. What gives?
