I've never had problems with adware, avoiding them is usually common sense (watch what plug ins you DL). I use ad-aware with spybot search and destroy every so often to remove the tracking type cookies I get on occasion, and also use google toolbar to block pop-ups.

Nice link Xander, sometimes I use google to research a process on my machine, but I'll bookmark that for the next time.

I've found it on my hard drive and deleted it countless times but, yes, it comes back every startup. Does anyone know what it is or how to get rid of it completely? A friend told me to try out Spybot S&D but I had that downloaded at one time and it seemed to make everything worse.

Also, I FINALLY just downloaded Firefox. Hope it's as wonderful as it's put up to be. Thanks for the links, Farah.
I couldn't find anything on it either, it may be new. Download Ad-Aware and Spybot Seek and Destroy. Update and run them both, update your anti-virus software and run it. If its something bad, one of those three apps should find it.
