    My PC is displaying several popup windows that appear to be misleading rogue in nature.

    A quick search showed a suspicious executable file known as "LoBoUYvVYw.exe" was running. A Google search (on another computer) showed very little information on this, except one vendor; (the reader must read between the lines for the name: P _ ev _ ). That vendor lists LoBoUYvVYw as a "latest threat" not caught by other vendors. I have never used P _ ev _, so I don't know if it is a reliable source.

    The Chimp will appreciate any assistance the Malware Removal Forum intelligentsia can provide. ;)

    If all you want to know is what is it then it is just a randomly named file that is likely an infection. Searching on randomly named files is basically a waste of time.

    If you want to know if it is an infection and remove it then please follow the instructions in the below link:
