For as far as i have encountered any of those fake AV advertisement in a browser window, for instance TPB or other sites, do NOT scan anything. However, when you allow to download something then you are in trouble.

It is a PICTURE (or movie) possibly with a dir command on your C: drive (in YOUR browser) so it looks like they see your drive and do an online scan !!! (it is part of the scaM to make you believe they did an online scaN)

more along the lines of a listing of where the malware infects your computer and how to remove and some apps to diagnose that its gone (and could detect a significant amount of other malware at the same time!)
