Errmmm if you can wait till 2morow then i can send you the ad aware professional program
However, its 5.5mb so you will need a yahoo account for me to send it. Apparently its a realli good program. I was using webroot spyware b4 this and a ad-ware somehow managed to install itself on my comp. A small search icon appeared everytime i switched my comp on and webroot never found the damm thing I have since swapped it for ad-aware and it found loads of stuff

yeah its probably some kind of worm that creates loads of ads when on net. Use an up-to-date virus scanner to find and quarantine infected file. Probably wont be able to repair due to nature of worms, but will be able to delete from machine. Go to Start, Run, type msconfig, then go to tab with startup, and look through list for any dodgy looking applications like mslaugh, rxa, winno.exe . If so, you have a spyware worm type virus.
