> so a few weeks ago i got some kind of a virus/spyware etc. one where it disables icons on your desktop etc. i ran my avg, ad-aware, spybot and got rid of most of it. the computer is running pretty fast and its pretty good. i reinstalled IE7, firefox, AIM etc and everything is good except when i am looking at a webpage, when i click to another page, open a window or something lik that, a full-page pop-up comes almost everytime. my spybot said the one thing i had that it couldnt remove was ‘Smitfraud’. well i got the smitfraud remove tool and supposed got rid of that. just for good measure, i got the vundo remove tool and ran it and it said i didnt have it. so anyways, here i am and i have done all this scanning and i still get this pop-up during a refesh or a new page. what can i do to fix it, im getting super frustrated.

beyond a number of things for tracking down bullshit, have you simlpy tried to log into your computer on another profile to see if it follows? then you might know if it’s simple or a more complex problem
