Pop Ups? Spy Ware Help!

[FreeHugeMovies]

While surfing the web I will get some damn pop ups. I think there is some type of virus on my pc. Does anyone know a good cleaner? I don't think I need Nortons or anything. Just some type of spy ware cleaner?

I highly reccomend Norton Personal Firewall. Took care of that problem for me. I dont get those damn popups at all anymore.

Get the most recent version of Spybot. It'll take care of it. More info on coolwebsearch:

Ad-aware usually kills most of that shit.

It might be a spyware that was downloaded to your computer and is starting up without you knowing though. The 'easy' way to get rid of those kinda programs, download a copy of TWEAK-XP, then remove all the shit from your 'autostarts' ...

There is another way to do it without downloading Tweakxp, but its a bit complicated.

The last thing you can do is double check your computer for virus's as well, goto www.mcafee.com and use the free virus scanner on the right hand side. It wont fix the virus's, but it will tell you if you have any or not.

These programs will not help you. Real CWS removal instructions:
Download http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/ , run it, click "scan", select all processes starting on ridicoulus signs (I mean these 7%7%7%7%, it`s encoded web page URL) they are on the top of the list and correspond for search page and start page settings and other, select bootconf.exe (located in windows/system32) and default.css (located in /windows directory) on the bottom of the list and click "fix" and restart computer. And that`s all, worked for anyone that I know (me included, I use Windows XP).
