Is this a virus that came with the latest IE updates or what??? The computers at work %26amp; mine at home will pop up with a huge message saying did you know your computer tracks all the porn sites you visit, blah blah blah, would you like to install drivecleaner. It basically shuts down whatever you were in %26amp; even if you hit cancel, it will automatically pop up with the screen to install. Only way to exit is to shut the window %26amp; then go back onto IE.
I do not visit porn sites, I hate that this msge shuts down what I am in, how do I stop it? Pop up blockers %26amp; virus protection are enabled yet it still happens...What's going on, anyone else experience this???

This wouldn't have came with the new IE7. Even if you don't browse porn sites you can pick this up at many other sites without even noticing. DO NOT install it....it is deffinitly malware.
Download Ad-aware, install, update, and run full system scan. Remove everything it finds.
Get a virus scanner and scan your computer.
Drivecleaner is spyware, and it is trying to scare you into buying their product, which is crap. Your antivirus can't get rid of it. Get SpyBot Search %26amp; Destroy to safely remove spyware. Best of all, it’s free. After installing it, immunize the computer against over 31,000 known pieces of spyware. Then run a full bot check and remove everything it finds using the Fix Selected Problems tab. Keep it updated and run it weekly to keep your computer free of this stuff. Then get Ad-Aware also from download.com and run it the first time doing a Full System Scan. Thereafter, run a Smart Scan daily.

DriveCleaner is a misleading application, which gives exaggerated reports of security and privacy risks on a computer. The program then prompts the user to purchase a registered version of the software in order to remove the reported risks.
