Welcome to PCWorld Community!

Ok, well , if you are willing , we will try a few programs to try and

discourage these pop-ups from reoccurring.

First , If you would, download and run CWShredder from Trend Micro . This is a free program.

This is an .exe and will not need to be installed. Simply double click on the .exe and run the program. This is what you will see:

Click on the "Fix" button. Next , you will see this pop-up appear and click "OK"

Make sure your Internet Browser and your Windows Media Player are closed.

The CWShredder will now run . It will only take a few seconds if it doesn't find anything.

If it does , it will delete the items found .

The next window will be that of the finished scan"

Mine was not infected but, if yours is , it will fix and delete what it found .

Click on the "Next" button.

The final window will list what it found , IF there were any infected files.

OK, If it found any infected files and has removed them , then you should reboot

your notebook.

The second security application I would like you to try is called

SUPERAntiSpyware by Nick Skepetos This is a free Antimalware

and will require an installation. This will not conflict with your other security programs.

Download from the Blue Link above and install. Once installed , look at the bottom left hand side

where you will see : "Check fo Updates" . Click on the button and let it update it's definitions.

Now , you will click on the "preferences" tab on the opposite side of the window.

Click on the tab. This will bring you to the configuring menu. On that window , click on the

"Scanning Control" tab . PLZ. check mark the same boxes as in the screen shot below.

Close the window and start a FULL SCAN of your notebook .

When the Scan is done and IF SUPERAntiSpyware finds anything , it

will ask you to "Delete or Quarantine" what it found. PLEASE do so.

Now reboot your notebook and report your findings in your next post.

FLASHORN,

Thanks so much for the great, clear answer. We are so lucky to have you here at PCW!
