evrytime I open the internet explorer and this notifier comes up and wont let
me do anything I have to do ctrl alt del and stop it via the task manager.

It looks like is a notifier from a website asking me to subscribe? It is
called "popcorn"
Any idea how to get rid of it. I runned ad aware and it keeps coming back

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.**

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
