Since downloading SP2 when ever I go to a web site or game room all of a
sudden the pop-up page bounces up and I have to delete it..This is horrible
and I need some help. I have reinstalled XP and IE and no help'
 
Hi,

If you are referring to obscene pop-up windows, you may
be infected with spyware.

These programs install ad programs on your computer and can
flood your machine wih pop-up boxes with pay-content that
usually includes adult material.

To crack down on the problem, try running the utilities
mentioned below and you may have a leg up on the problem.

First, download AdAware. This is an excellent program which
detects and deletes spyware, and other malware programs.
AdAware is available from:

http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/

After downloading and installing AdAware, *be sure to update
it*. This will ensure you are protected against the latest
threats. Then, run it.

Next, we'll get CWShredder. This neat program catches
variants which may have been missed by AdAware. CWShredder
is available from:

http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip

Together, they should both remove any spyware which is
present on your system.

I would recommend you read the following resource, a
valuable guide to what spyware is, and the kind of problems
it can cause. You can find it here:

Best Regards,

Altrus
