The error message “Warning visiting this site may harm your computer” can be a true message that comes from Google, IE, Firefox or your security software. It is very easy to know whether your IE has been hijacked by some bad program, or not. If you ever see a software program being pitched or a recommendation to a product then the message is false and you should not trust it. For exact examples or to learn how to solve this check out this Warning Visiting This Site May Harm Your Computer.

The same is true if you do a Google search and notice some extra text under the Google search box recommending out a certain security client. Another example would be a good website you do happen to visit on a daily basis. Your computer is infected by some virus if upon visiting that good and know web page, you do get the warning we talked before. Most of the time, those viruses are not easy to remove. Another place to go to learn more about similar threats is this Spyware Removal site.

If on all the websites you are visiting, you are but getting the messages over and over: your system has rather a threat on it. You could always re-set your web browser and see if that solves the problem. This trick works sometimes, not always. In any case: always perform a full system scan with your antivirus program.

If the threat is still present on your computer: your system has a bigger infection and possible more than just one problem on it. The best thing you can do is to learn more about the fake security software they are trying to pitch you. Using the sites I wrote before: search for the name of this bad program (and write it down to help you). There you will find some very detailed guides covering how to remove the exact threat you have installed on your computer.
