Websites on Internet Explorer keeps popping up. I've tried numerous programs to remove spywares, adwares, viruses, and etc. I've used Spyware Blaster, Ad-Aware, VundoFix, AVG-Anti-Spyware, and Super Anti Spyware.

xtremeliquid, nothing better than a SWAG I'm afraid, but... Sounds like a Trojan to me. Be aware that a virus and a Trojan are similar, but not the same. Many times, an AV detects one it can't clean , other times, it gets missed entirely. If you need to clean one, A² can do the job and you can get it free @: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software... among other places. FWIW, works with Vista. If it turns out that you need to use it, be sure to update prior to running. They just released a new update recently and it changes all the time. Things are in a constant state of flux. HTH.
