I am having a huge problem with my internet popping up new windows, on my internet explorer 7, Now I have vista home premium and it is driving me crazy cause I dont understand vista like xp. Now at first I was like yeah ist just spy ware well I am not only running spy sweep but I have adaware and spy bot(these are legit copies too), I also have avg free and regcure none of these have helped and it really seems to pop up fling.com, and fubar, adultfriend finder, and ad double click, I get adds for websites that I search for in yahoo. I hope you guys can help me also when I run firefox it doesnt do any of this the obvious cure would be to run fire fox but it runs slower than IE I love fire fox but not enough to go slower. I am about to start over fresh. I am so tired of this crapt I have also blocked alot of the websites on my router and it helps but then I get cannot find website or this site is blocked pop ups. also around 9-11 at night I will get on the net and my browser pops up with 30 windows in succession and then I close them out and its ok. just really annoying and I dont feel safe checking my ebay.

Thanks guys

1) Switch to Firefox

2) Get rid of all that other spyware apps and use Spyware Terminator.

3) AVG sucks, use Avast instead.

4) Run SmitFraudFix as well.

I promise this will take care of it.

thankyou I will jump on this asap I do want to know why my computers run so slow with firefox though I really mean like 40 second to 2 min load times. These computers arent punks either my laptop is an hp dv 9000
my desktop is a dual core processor with alot of ram too I really dont wanna brag so I wont tell the entire specifics but it can play crysis at medium levels not bad at all I built it and its my baby, but I just was amazed at how slow it ran I also have a 15 mbps internet connection, can you think of any reason why.

Thanks again

Probably because they are full to the brim with spyware ;) As for fista.. waste 60% of your system performance why not.
