I got the same process a moment ago. The number one sign that's it's
malware at work is that the warnings are anonymous. Official browser
warnings come in a coloured banner (I've seen both yellow and blue) at
the top of the window, IIRC carrying the browsers branding. Your own
AV / firewall will put its branding into any pop-up warning. I had to
kill IE with Process Explorer, because trying to close it manually was
a circular argument. Alt-F4 didn't even work.
