Try downloading Ad-Aware 6 from www.freewarenetwork.com
click on security and click to start the download. When
the download window comes up click open and it will
install it. Then when it's done, (if it's closed itself,
open it) and click check for updates in the lower right
hand corner. Click connect and let it download the
update. Then scan your system. I don't guarentee that
this will work, but it will get rid of a ny spyware,
adware, or scumware that's on your computer.

>hi i have this search bar that installed itself on my

computer for no reason. i cant uninstall it because i
never installed it and its not on my add or remove
programs list. its very annoying because when i try to go
to some websites (mainly any microsoft) a stupid pop up
add comes up with either virus hunter, pop up blocker or
somesort of that. how can i rid of this problem?
