Ok. Dudette is back online.
And yep! That is correct. What do you mean by you
"just restarted via system restore"?
This very strange. Have you ever had BitDefender installed on this computer? Let's run the uninstall tool for BitDefender and see if that helps.
You can find it >>

I see that
BT Virus Protect had teamed up with McAfee. From my understanding, when you install BT Virus Protect it actually installs McAfee(see steps 3 and 4 in BT link).
Not sure I like what I found
here about BT/McAfee.
To make the BT Virus Protect installation process as easy as possible, it will automatically detect and remove many existing software security packages (after asking for your permission).
The appropriate way to change AV software is to use the previous AV's uninstaller to make sure all residual files have been removed. I usually then instruct the user to run the uninstall tool that was designed for that purpose to ensure ALL residual files have been remove that could cause conflict. I don't see how BT/McAfee could completely detect all the files from a previously installed program so they can be removed.
I am not sure which AV suite Virgin offers, though whatever they offer you do not have to use it. Maybe one of the members here who has Virign can provide some insight on that. Personally, I have never been a big fan of AV's that were offered by any internet provider, at least not since my aging mother was scammed into believing it was "included" in the package she got and they never told her that she was actually paying $5.99 a month for.
You can use BitDefender if you like. I am a big Avast fan myself. If you do choose to go with BitDefender, still use the uninstall tool I linked you to above. I want to see if that will remove whatever is making that popup appear. Otherwise, I am going to have you perform a search for that file and see if we can annihilate the bugger.
You can delete the FRST/Addition.txt logs off your desktop if you like. There should be copies saved in the path below which will be removed when I have you uninstall the tool with a special removal tool I use once we get this error popup sorted out.
