I only want to know if it's a real warning or a false positive
does any other Kaspersky user experiences this?

Check your taskmanager and kill wscript.exe.
Seems your system is self infected with "VirusRemoval.vbs.

@Gaurav - your antivirus is giving a false positive . i.e it thinks there is a virus, but actually there isn't . So don't worry.
Also if you are using firefox its highly unlikely for you to be infected just by visiting a webpage , unless you have some weird/broken extension

thanks chess
I think norton internet security 2009 is better than Kaspersky internet security 2010, it gave me no false positive, and norton is somewhat light compared to kaspersky
