Where did this error message show up? The balloon in the system tray? If so, this is a known maulicious program itself - if you click on the warning, it'll take you to a site that will sell you the removal program. The program is spyware itself though, and only makes matters worse. It's a con and will cost you money.

Unless you use a spyware scanner with an "Auto Protect" feature (like in Microsoft AntiSpyware) then you will never get a system error reporting spyware. You should get Ad-Aware, MS Anti-Spy and SpyBot and run them all to remove the spyware. They are all free and they will actually work.

I would also suggest strongly that if you don't already have them, you should get an Anti-Virus program and a Firewall. There are some fully functional free versions like AVG Free Edition and ZoneAlarm - they will offer you protection from similar and worse problems in the future.

I hope this helps! Very Happy

With just that information, how can anyone help you? It's really impossible. Can't you just spend a bit more time explaining the problem?? Another thing, there's no such thing as 'System error #3849'. Sypware doesn't usually interfere with the system.

I think youll never get such errors with windows . I think this message is from a backdoor programm or something else... check your pc for things like that with AntiVir (www.freeav.com), It΄s my favourite Virus Scanner
