How do I stop an Android virus pop up?

Android virus pop up

I keep getting a pop up warning that my galaxy S3 has been infected with a virus. It wants me to press OK to allow southpop.com to check for infections. How do I make this stop....I haven't pressed anything and it's so annoying.

Re: Android virus pop up

Welcome to Android Central! It's clearly adware or scareware. Does it only occur when you're browsing the web? If so, it's probably coming from the site you're visiting.
