Micro AV Security Center

Hello! We are a very basic home computer using husband and wife. I was recently helped by a nice Comcast guy who explained to me that I should just install McAfee(which was free anyway) to get rid of all these "security", "antivirus" pop-ups. He explained that I should Uninstall all programs that would prevent McAfee from being properly installed. I was successful (or so I thought) in getting rid of all of these sudden pop-ups. Then , somehow, "Micro AV-security center or Micro Anti-virus 2009" constantly comes back over and over. I would be happy to elaborate on this obnoxious whatever, if you need more info. The guy said to contact you guys. If you can help, Thankyou!!!! AND You all should all be paid much more than you probably are!!!
