Close the browser down and if it wont close press ctrl alt delet keys and open task manager.
Find the process for internet explorer or any browser you use and end it.
What you saw was a scam, hopefully you did not let it install. :/
Anything it shows not reflecting that of your Mycomputer o windows is fake.
Read this please:
System Check - how to remove

Also do you have any sort of virus/trojan malware protection right now ?
 
MMike, i guess it kind of got downloaded somehow :eek:

After a looot of searching I read that this really is malware infection, and the good thing is, other than being infected, my PC is fine and nothing critical is happening to it (that is unless there are bigger viruses..)

Sadly, I did not have an antivirus program till now, and it is completely my fault i got infected:eek::eek:. I am going to install one right away.
I followed some instructions that i found here
Remove System Check (Uninstall Guide)
https://community.mcafee.com/thread/44035
Remove System Check virus
and tried to remove it manually, but it did not change a thing. So I guess antivirus programs will have to do the job.
I am going to install Avast and Malwarebytes and I hope they would do what they have to do.
Thank you, and please keep your fingers crossed :)
