    Hi, I am experiencing the same exact problem as you, and no matter what
    I do, my computer background is covered up with a "warning" about
    spyware, and a link to a removal site. I'm wondering if you have found
    anything that can fix the problem. If you have, please let me know.
    Thank You,
    Jennifer
