Anybody heard of this software?

The reason I ask is because I installed this software only 2 b told by it
about 2 hours later that I had a virus and offered 2 remove it, tried that
only 2 b told that I would have 2 buy the software.

I didn't but instead checked my computer with a couple of free virus
scanners but they found nothing (used avg free and ntl netgaurd)

Uninstalled the software and rebooted was still told by the software I still
had a virus only this time my desktop was highjacked telling me I had a
virus and to click here to remove it, the link brought me back to
www.antivirusgold.com telling me to removed the virus I had to buy the
software. Did a little snooping and removed web content from my desktop
and spyware from my computer, the message disappeared rebooted only to find
that it was back again both the message and the spyware. By this time I was
really annoyed so fdisk my partition and reinstalled windows xp.

I just want to know if anybody knows about this company cause they caused my
a few hours of grief.
