popups!!!! fixed

fixed it. I used a program called "hijackthis" and it showed me what was running. Turned out to be some medload.exe. All fixed now.

Re:popups!!!!

if you go to just www.popuppers.com it has a "program" that "deletes" popups. Either that or it rapes you in the *** upon install.

Ture and if you can't figure out which one it is you can post the log file on their site and someone will help you out.

I had some sneaky spyware ----. It would prevent adaware and spybot from DLing their updates. I had to uninstall and reinstall to get them to receive updates.

Ack! I've got the same problem even when i re-installed. Neither programs can find it but it also wont let me set my start up page other than the default blank one. Looks like I'm gonna have to try hijackthis.
