removing auto ad popups

[Z-Bone]

I installed Kazza on my system and now i get ad popups as soon as i run IE.

Im not sure if removing Kazaa would change things,(would it?) or is there
another way of killing the popups?

Thanks

removing kazaa is a plus but not necessarily the case. there are many different pop ups and spyware adds. get adaware 6 free\ zone alarm free\spywareblaster free\and pop up stopper or google toolbar or many free popup programs for free. hopefully you have an anti virus software also.

Greetings --

To deal with issues caused by any sort of "adware" and/or
"spyware,"such as Gator, Comet Cursors, Smiley Central, 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. I use both and generally
perform manual scans every week or so to clean out cookies, etc.

Additionally, manual removal instructions for the most common
varieties of scumware are available here:
