Default WINPCNOW5

I have not been able to find anything regarding this
error... If anyone can help I'd appreciate it. Sometimes
while online doing various things a screen pops up and has
an error can not create windows/temp/plasms50/plasma
whatever it means I just close it. So I found the file
WINPCNOW5 and it is in my Windows Temp folder but if I
delete it it says it's a program so I don't want to delete
it. Anyone have any ideas???

hi to all, OK, WINPCNOW5 is a program that has been automatically
downloaded from a pop up web sites without your knowledge, it contains
nothing but JUNK web sites such us porn, and all kinds of advertisments,
now the error that you are receiving "cannot create
windows/temp/plasms50/plasma" usually "POPS UP" (cause it came from a pop
up) when you first turn on your computer and you access your internet, now
to solve this problem, (follow carefully) FIRST, DISSCONNECT your internet
cable from your computer (phone line or DSL). SECOND, close all program.
THIRD clear your cookie (make sure there's no web address on your cookie.
FOURTH, go to search on your start up menu search for (type exactly)
WINPC* after the search delete all the found file that contain WINPC name
on it then empty recycle bin. Now search for WINPCNOW5" using "includes
all files and folders" when you find WINPCNOW5 that has an icon that looks
like a globe then delete that (that's the main program) and delete all the
files fund that contains WINPC as a file name then empty recycle bin. and
that should do it.

Not trying to be contrary here, but why empty the recycle bin?
I am more than willing to learn something new.
