Here's how it works

1. A person visits foxnews
2. A banner pops up displaying an ad
3. within that ad is a program that is automatically downloaded to your pc
4. within moments the program runs and a pop-up appears saying that your system is showing signs of malware and viruses
5. Encourages you to give a credit card number to purchase an anti-virus program

Make sure your anti-virus program is running and updated.
