Hi Notaclue and welcome,

Probably the best to use as a first try is installing and running those two programs:

1 - "Spybot Search and destroy", Get it here:

2 - "Ad-Aware", Get it here:

http://www.softpedia.com/public/scripts/downloadhero/10-17-58

Normally, a small download window must pop-up when you clic on it to download. If not, clic on one of the links on the page (Miror) to start downloading them.

If that doesn't solve your problem, come back here and tell us. There'll be a good girl in our forum will pop-Up to help you.   ;)

Can't add to what Joudi said, but here's a couple of alternative download links, including Spyware Blaster, which, once your system is clean, will prevent future spyware / adware being installed without your knowledge.

Ad Aware
Spybot S&D
Spyware Blaster
Many thanks to all our members, who have made PC Pals such an outstanding success!   :thumb:

Thankyou. I downloaded the first suggestion & then did a check & it found 24 'red' problems of which 2 were 'adult' related.

Thanks peeps, hopefully thats sorted my problem
