Hello,
Upon starting Windows (turning on the PC), a prompt appears: an application requests access to a protected item, Crypto API private key and asks for a password. For a few days now, my computer has been encountering a problem; every time I launch something, whether it’s the Internet, Excel, or Word, a window opens asking me to enter a crypto API key.

Details: Crypto API private key and asks for a password. For the past few days,
C:\WINDOWS\system32\wuauclt.exe I close the window or
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe or
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\NMain.exe

What should I do to remove this Crypto API private key window?
Is it a virus?

If you know how to solve my problem, can you please help me?
I really need you, so if you know, I would be glad to hear from you.
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 8.0

Once on the site
http://www.malekal.com
I don't know where to click

Is it exactly the same problem that is solved in the link you sent me? I'm afraid I'll make a mistake in the manipulations.

Yes, but more concretely:
download one of the two:
- Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware https://www.commentcamarche.net/telecharger/securite/14361-malwarebytes-anti-malware/
- SpyBot http://www.safer-networking.org/fr/ownmirrors1/index.html my favorite, although it's heavier.

start by updating them properly, following the step-by-step procedures.

With Spybot, will I need to start in safe mode?
What will happen once Spybot is downloaded?
Can Spybot block the computer?
What should I do once Spybot is installed? Where should I click step by step? I don't know anything about this kind of software, and I'm a bit afraid of crashing my computer; I'm a little panicked?

Can you tell me more, please?
What kind of problems can my computer have?

Thank you in advance for your help.
