Default Grokster killin' my PC!


I downloaded Groskter a while back (worst thing I could
have ever done). It left sooooooo much spyware on my
computer and after many, many attempts to remove it with
ad-aware, I STILL continue to get unwanted pop ups.

Any one have any idea how I get rid myself of this
annoying problem?

Thanks.

He's already done that. (see below)

What kind of pop-ups are you seeing? Are they only when you are browsing the
web, or so they occur at any time. Are they Windows Messenging Service pop-ups?
