Okay, I first downloaded Pop-up-stopper
But that was annoying, bc I couldn't get my pm-pop-up anymore, and other stuff

I uninstalled it, and downloaded Ad-Aware
I scanned my files, it came up with over 130 suspicious files!!
I got rid of them all, and it works!!!

Yay
(*Si = relieved)

Thanks guys!!

Yay for Si! Sometimes you have to be careful about what Adaware removes.... it can remove spyware you NEED for stuff to function.  Like Kazaa has some spyware built into it that if you remove Kazaa stops working.
