Not all adware/spyware removers are created equal, and some do miss things that another will catch. That's why most knowledgeable people use two or three different products. > I > never have a problem with pop ups but last week im getting these things pop > up for golden casino, or i won something or saying i have adult tracks on my > computer and to test now i click no and it starts to test anyway. i have > windows defender and untill now it worked great. These boxes pop up and go > to a new screen.i use mozilla and im told linux is better. I just got the new > version of mozilla and its no different, helllllp To find and/or deal with issues caused by any sort of "adware" and/or "spyware," such as Gator, Comet Cursors, Xupiter, Bonzai Buddy, or KaZaA, and their remnants, that you've deliberately (but without understanding the consequences) installed, two products that are quite effective (at finding and removing this type of scumware) are Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de and SpyBot Search & Destroy from www.safer-networking.org/. Both have free versions. It's even possible to use SpyBot Search & Destroy to "immunize" your system against most future intrusions. Additionally, manual removal instructions for the most common varieties of scumware are available here: PC Hell Spyware and Adware Removal Help http://www.pchell.com/support/spyware.shtml More information and assistance is available at these sites: Blocking Ads, Parasites, and Hijackers with a Hosts File http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm The Parasite Fight http://www.aumha.org/a/parasite.htm -- Bruce Chambers Help us help you: http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -Benjamin Franklin Many people would rather die than think; in fact, most do. -Bertrand Russell |

Read the link below and then see the registry( be careful when editing the Registry, you can render your system useless if you wrongly edited the Registry, so back Up first): http://www.nuker.com/container/detai...ar_toolbar.php For Malwares download both these software: http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad-...e_personal.php <you said you have Adaware, did you update its definitions?, uninstall and reinstall the new release you may have older version>: http://www.safer-networking.org ; for Spybot S&D Open the Run Command and type in: regedit.exe click [OK] On the Registry Editor locate this Key: [-]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main = Look in the Right Pane/Window for the search Bar and Search Page if it for this tool bar delete it. [-]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Toolbar = look for the extension of the toolbar in the Right Pane/Window. [-] HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main Look in the Right Pane/Window for the search Bar and Search page if it for this tool bar delete it [-] HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Toolbar = The same here. 2- Download the Hijackthis and send the report to one of many forums for analysis and troubleshooting: When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1 (http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use. It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. Post your log to http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, http://castlecops.com/forum67.html, http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7, or other appropriate forums for expert analysis, not here. Please perform one step (1,2) at a time and see if that will help your issue. Please tell us about the Name of that worm next time in your message. HTH. Please let us know.
