The pop up that you are receiving may be a Fraudlent pop up generated by a spyware or a Malware program that has infected your computer.
To fix it, You may want to download the Mcafee STINGER and run a scan for your system files first and than download the AOL Mcafee Internet Security Center on to your computer an run a full scan on your computer.
To download the Mcafee stinger , Just navigate to this link.
