Yes, I believe I've become infected with that dreadful stuff known as spyware. Or perhaps it is adware. Its one of them, and its damn annoying a pop-up window coming up every five minutes or so. Anyway... Need help. Programs to help rid my computer of these annoying bastards?
Edit - The last site I visited before this trouble started was Facebook, at a friends request, which is like a very tame myspace... I believe that is where I got the thing from and if so, I shall not be going back to it.

Best think is the formate your PC and install all things new. But if you know where this little file is located then you can delete it in the Save Mode of Windows.
Always do that when I can't get ride of a Trojaner or something like that. Save Mode, delete reboot and it works again.

I used AdAware 6 and I'm pretty sure it got rid of it. I'll see if I can't snag the file for ya. Norton can help too.
