Tried all that shit no dice... so what I've done is I've just created a 2nd Windows XP acct. Xfered all my crap over here. I have not seen any of the Spyware Strike Propaganda yet. So lets hope for the best.

another thing to try

go to start>run and type in msconfig.

Then go to the startup tab.
This lists everytyhing that starts when you boot up the computer. If you see anything you don't know what it is. What I usually do is copy the name of the application into google. You'll usually find out what the application is by doing this. Then if it's something you don't want, just uncheck it.

Make sure you go into your control panel into the add/delete programs and remove anything you don't actually want on your computer.

You can try either spysweeper from webroot http://www.webroot.com/consumer/downloads/?WRSID=0a5dc9c28b155ee03bc2d3d4197338c1 or you can try hijackthis http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html. Hijackthis requires a little bit of computer knowledge though it requires no installation. If you use hijackthis you can run it and create a report and post the report here or email it to me and I will try to see if I can tell you what to do.
