    laptop telling me i have spyware etc

    i am having to use my computer to write this as i cannot access from my laptop which i normally use i have a blue and yellow shield with speach bubble telling me threat detected and relling me spyware and others attacking my laptop and starting to run scan which seems to be picking up trojans and infections but i have just run a full scan by avg and it found nothing,i dont know wheter to allow the win 7 scan in case this is a virus/con. i have a page open on ebay and it has a warning shield with firefox alert visiting this site could pose a security threat to your system it said exactly the same for this site and hotmail. i could really use some advice as the pop up is still worrying me and i now have box system security alert it wants me to activatenwin 7 home security 2011 click box or stay unprotected click box.

                  Hi

                  You need to run your laptop in safe mode - before it gets to the windows desktop

                  It usually tells you which buttons to press as you start up your laptop.
