I was just checking over my Deviantart File as i do every single day and i was reading something about Breast Cancer walk and i click one of my firefox tabs out of no where my Window closes and popups say "Must runs this program go to (Run -> Prompt -> Searchexe.exe) Or somesthing like, It , I smirked and opened up Zonealarm Pro and just scanned all it found was simple Cookies. I was just wondering if it was a real virus.

EDIT:
As a very few seconds ago i was shown high alerts.

Iass.exe
Svchost.exe

Are these bad?

That would be Lsass, not Iass. Those are legitimate windows services, but in some cases viruses can hide themselves under those names.

Well if its iass.exe and not lsass.exe check what file its coming from, use like Tune Up utilities or something to find it.

Usually virusses are called the same as existing processes or they look-a-like. Go to google and search something like "Svchost.exe process", than you can read some more about the program. If its a virus you can kill it in Ctrl+Alt+Del and do a virus scan.

Good luck,
