    Everytime I open up anything, including IE, command, system restore, this microsoft security essentials pops up, and say, "Microsoft Security Essentials detected potential threats that might compromise your privacy or damage your computer. Your access to these items may be suspended until you take an action. Click 'Show details' to learn more." On 'Detected items' it shows Unknown Win32/Trojan. Is there anyway I can get rid of this...btw, I have Windows 7.

    Can you actually still use the PC?

    Do you have a virus program other than the standard Windows one installed?

    If you have "microsoft security essentials" installed..... it may be telling you that you have a Trojan, that's what it's supposed to do... hello?

    Post a HJT Log and we can look it over...
