Annoying Popups!

Oh my god.

Every time I connect to the internet, about every 30 seconds a little ad pops up in the top left corner. It is displayed in internet explorer.

I have tried editing my hosts file, ad-aware, and tips on the internet. This thing won't die.

Anyone had the same problem as me before and know how to fix it?

Thanks :wave:

try to use FireFox.

thanks for the quick reply - I really don't want to use firefox though. Just get rid of this annoying bug!

Perhaps it's spyware.. ;)... look for some solution here... http://inspirone.blogspot.com... look for the blog about removing spyware manually

Or try downloading Spybot Search & Destroy. It's free, and it's the best adware/spyware/trojan remover. Google it, and it should be the first link.

And then install AdAware after wards, and then they all should be gone..:)

Alternatively, don't download and install dodgy software or visit "those kinds" of sites anymore ;).

and get the windows spyware killer to all three combined should get just about any thing

May I suggest that you have a look at http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...e/default.mspx

Happy Killing..erm Spyware Removing :)

You have to eliminate this at its source:

- Find out whos responsible for it
- hunt them down
- and break all their @#$%^&*() fingers!

lol..this is great..to stop popups
A) get fx
OR
B)do steps 1-30 to fix the crap that IE allows through

If you're got XP, install XPSP2 ASAP. Not only is it something noone should be without, but it helps stop lots of this crap.

And as always, don't click yes to every dialog you see just to get rid of it.
