I keep getting little pop up screens that say my computer has been infected, but when I run Norton 360, I have no risks found? PLEASE HELP MY COMPUTER NOT GET FUCKED.

What internet browser are you using? If your running IE then that could very well be why. When I used to use IE, I would always get weird pop ups like that.

when the links come up to not listen to what they reccomend i used to get them all the time, they pop up saying you have a virus and post a link to fix it, the link is actually a virus. Go to settings and pop up blocker and raise the bar a little bit on it.

the little pop up screens are trying to get you to install software to "fix" it, but whatever it wants you to put on your computer is actually a virus. listen to your virus scanner.
