Hi, I tried to uninstall AntiVirgear as it was popping up a message saying my computer was infected with something and I had to pay for a full version to clean it. However, after uninstalling, I still got the pop up message and if I clicked it would bring me to the website. It would be appreciated if someone would assist in helping me remove this program totally from my system. I'll then install one of the recommended antispyware software from your site. I've enclosed my Hijack log below:

hello,
i guess there are still some AntiVirgear files left on your computer. check AntiVirgear removal and search for the malicious files on your system. and delete them if they are still there
