I am extremely frustrated right now as i am being swamped with IE popups. The problem started when i first installed a dodgy program, and i deleted it straight away. Then i installed Kazaa and from then on ive had this irritiating pop-up problem. Ive tried several pop-up killers/stoppers new and old. But they dont seem to do anything. The pop ups still come up and the anti-pop-up software does nothing about them, even thought they are clearly installed properly and "enabled".
What the in be-jeezus do i do now?
E-mail me aswell if you can. pavonefred@hotmail.com

Also, download AdAware ... it's a friendly little program that will get rid of all the SpyWare programs that Kazaa, or anyone else, put on your computer.

Yeah, get AdAware you most likely have spyware on your computer. In addition to AdAware get SpyBot which sometimes handles stuff that AdAware misses. Get it here: http://security.kolla.de/
