pop-ups and spyware

[Giuseppe Chirico]

I have win2000 with IE6. I have tried many different programs to get rid of
pop-ups and spyware but I just can't. One major pop-up that keeps coming up
is 888.com by cassava. Does anyone know how to stop these annoying pop-ups?
Please HELP.

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
