All of a sudden I am being deluged with popups in IE, including a terrible one called "enhance my search" that interrupts every search. Help please. What can I do. I have latest Mcafee virus running and I have run updated Adaware and Spybot??????? First eliminate any scumware. What You Should Know About Spyware http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...ssoftware.mspx CAUTION!!!!! Before you try to remove spyware using any of these programs , download a copy of LSPFIX from any of the following sites: http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html (if your OS is Win2k or XP) The process of removing certain malware may kill your internet connection. If this should occur, this program, LSPFIX, will enable you to regain your connection. See Dealing with Unwanted Malware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other won't. Also, each needs to be updated with the program's update function before every use, even when just downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs. CWShredder is also available he http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs...cwshredder.zip **Post your HijackThis log to http://www.spywareinfo.com/forums/ http://forums.tomcoyote.org/ http://www.wilderssecurity.com/ or the Spyware forum at http://forum.aumha.org/viewforum.php?f=30 for expert analysis, not here.** Alternative download pages for Ad-Aware, Spybot, HijackThis and CWShredder may be found on this page: http://aumha.org/a/parasite.htm.
