Do not click on anything on the fake security scan page that appears; the creators of any virus can easily hide an "execute file" command under a "No Thanks" button. I have had this page appear on my computer and it will not close with the red "X" in the upper right corner of all browsers.
Instead, go to the Task Manager by simultaneously pressing the three Control-Alt-Delete keys. Under the "Applications" (first) tab, click on your browser (will probably show something like ("Free Virus Scan"), then click on the radio button for "End Task". Hopefully, it will not have installed anything in your directory if you didn't let it.
