Still having pop up problems and waiting for a better answer?

Question:

Ok the problem im having with pop-up's started when I downloaded and installed Windows Live Messenger Khalid Edition to fix the error of logging on and checking my mail. Well the software did fix the problem I was having with messenger but it enabled pop-up's to appear on my screen. I uninstalled and deleted the program hopping they would go away but they still come back. Ive tryd everyway to block the pop-ups from the Help and Support and even downloaded the best pop up blocker i could get and they just keep coming back. I just dont know what to do anymore to stop the pop up's.

I was told to get Ad-ware removal program to get rid of the add ware that got on my computer and did it worked tested the internet no more pop up's but the very next day they some how came back. I did find somthing new out though that when im on the internet and a page loads up I find at the bottom left corner it says Done, but with errors on page.

Check these sites out, instead of a quick fix, if you learn to see the signs, and notice changes in your system thats a better solution otherwise, you'll just keep getting the same reoccurance.

Download, update and activate all options of a program like this :

Keep it on and updated.

However the problem could be two-fold i.e. spyware on your system, when you boot up, your adware remover removes one part of the problem, the other stays resident and replaces the 'removed' pests either on reboot or as soon as its counterpart is deleted. Like most virus programs there's a payload and a deliver system/program most adware/worms are similar some hide as legit programs.

Disabling system restore in Windows XP, some culprits hide in that reserved area of your Hard Drive. Unless you disable and purge it, they live there happily without notice (by most)

Check and see if the messenger service is running. If it is , disable it you don't need it.

Wow your computer is really screwed up! Well if adware can't find the program causing the popups then nothing can its really good. The best thing would be to re-install windows. Nows a good time too you can get a copy of windows Vista. when you install it though don't boot up windows go into Bios and select boot from CD and format your hard drive. Once you have the new version installed the program doing this will no longer exist.

try with this free software

Not sure what you have done but, If you don't have IE than I can't help you other than I also have googles toolbar and it stops a lot that IE doesn't. Make sure you have the setting set and I had Ad ware and it worked. Make sure you scrub your system to get rid of what's on you PC. Spot and Destory, Ad-Aware SE Personal is a good cleaner and get the personal edition it's free and CCleaner.COM has a good cleaner. But keeping them off ? Adware worked for me.

humm..internet options pop up blocker is checked?,.download spybot from cnet.com. install it. now restart your computer in "safe mode" and run spybot a few times, restarting back into safe mode each time, you have to be in safe mode to have spybot and ad-ware to work! easy way to get into safe mode...start, run, msconfig, click BOOT.INI tab check the first box "safe mode" to get out do the same start, run, msconfig, uncheck safe mode...good luck hit me up for more details it u want
