Hello everyone,

This morning I was greeted with this lovely pop up when I was using my laptop.
I done a scan with AVG and it said that the threat has been removed but yet it keeps coming back. in Task Manager under processes it doesn't say that it is a running process. Does anyone know what can be done to solve this?
Here is the screen shot:

I'd get rid of that ''funmoods'' crap. I don't know if it's technically malware but it's definitely dodgy

It is dodgy. It was installed along with a program I actually wanted. I later deleted that program and disabled funmoods from Chrome but I don't know what its still doing there.

ADW Cleaner should remove that if you want to

It should be in add/remove programs list in the control panel. you can nuke it from there. edit/ I think.

No it's not there. I tried looking for it.

After a full scan, AVG reports no threats. So thanks to everyone that helped, especially ASJ112.
