i downloaded this program thinking that it was going to work.. but it just keeps poping up saying my computer is infected and i should buy it. i have read that its a false program that lies just so you buy it. i REALLY want to delete it because it has gotten on my nerves and i dont know if it will infect the computer. i have tried going to Contro Panel and i tried to unistall but it doesnt appear there!! some how it ended up on my documents folder. my only option is to delete it.. when i do so i says i cant because i need permission.. i have a 2007 hp pavillion.. windows vista…
***i really really really would apreciate if anybody could help me delete this.. im just really frustated >=|

you have been infected my friend with a win32 type virus. The only way I know how to get rid of it is to do a full system recovery. Anytime you get those pop ups while on the web, you need to use ctrl+alt+delete to stop them. Because when you click on the red X it will down load it.

Many people have been sucked in by this rogue program and variants.
Not sure about Vista but try this:
Start>Search>All Files and Folders.
Type "XPA.exe" without the quotes in the search box.
Delete the File/Folder XPA.exe.
Delete all Files named XPA.
Make sure you have a good Internet Security Suite, and you will not need to click on any FREE things
