Some sort of adware on my system keeps giving me pop-ups from oinadserver.com. I've run ad-aware and various other programs with their latest updates to try and get rid of it, but with no success. Occasionally I can find its process in the process list (athe.exe), but its not always there. My theory is that its latched on as a module to Explorer.

Either way, does anyone know how I might get rid of it manually? I've tried taking it out of the registry's startup folders, but to no avail.

We are Microsoft; resistance is futile.
