Howdy

Have you run any kind of adware or spyware detection software? If so, what brand are you using?

Hey Slush,

Glad you were able to get rid of that popup. They are mean lil buggers and they get harder and harder to get rid of once they're on your computer.

I'm not familar with Spy Doctor (free is good!) but I've found SpySweeper by Webroot keeps stuff off my computer.

I've used both SpyDoctor and SpySweeper and prefer SpySweeper.. seems to be the more effective of the two.
