Please help- malicious crap installed on my computer!

When I open IE, all kinds of pop-ups keep coming up and it makes getting on the net impossible. I usually use Firefox anyway, but I want to get this shit off of my computer. I tried Spybot; it removes stuff, but it doesn’t fix the problem and when I run it again there is more spyware back anyway. What do I do now?

Also try running Ad-Aware; it and Spybot complement each other.

This could possibly be CoolWebSearch. Download and run CWShredder and see if that finds anything.

If these don’t work, download and run Hijackthis. Save the log and then post it in the forums at Spyareinfo. Someone will go over the problem and give you a solution.

Gonna try it right now. Thanks Chuck.

RealityChuck, Ran all three programs and now all that crap is finally off of IE. Thanks alot! Now I just gotta fix the lopsided buttons on my keyboard from pounding on it in frustration.

Glad to help.
