Technical help with computer problem please?

Every time I start up IE, I am getting a "security alert" message from Equifax. I have removed the certificate from my root certification options, but the alert still keeps popping up [even after I have restarted the computer]. Equifax is now not even showing in my certification list, but I still get the security warning every time.

Any ideas please anyone?

Sounds like malware to me.

 

Also, your links have been removed from your post and if you post any again I'm afraid you'll be banned. Thanks.

Get AVG free, if it is any sort of virus or malware it will catch it.

That means Equifax is still running in the background. You can check by typing Alt-Ctrl-Delete and check in the list of applications if the program is running. If it is in the list, you will have to remove the program completely (add & remove programs) or exclude the program from the sartup list.
