gg porn ads and serial sites
Anyway, I use a combination of Ad-aware, Spybot, and Spyware Blaster. I also have Norton Systemworks 2005 with AV and script blocking. If all that shit doesn't help, try hijack this.

Dial-up or broadband? Clear cookies and all temp internet files. Also if youre using XP just disconnect the internet while you work. this will solve the problem until you can remove ALL the ad-ware. Have any special toolbars?

How the fuck should i know that you fucked your computer the last time u did that.
U probably deleted manually then, there are files in there that shouldnt be delete thats y u use the tool under interent options. if you use the tool then u have a virus
Try Ad-Aware its a nice tool, i use the full version at home [url:fae96]http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/[/url:fae96]

It seems the only time my computer ever truly gets fucked is when I try to repair XP using the disk.

lol, he's trying to help you. Just because you couldn't figure out the proper means to delete a non-vital section of your computer dosen't mean he's telling you to format C: (But that'll solve your Spyware problems so give it a try)

Start<run<msconfig<startup< deselect everything and bam nothing comes up at start up that you dont want to. Then delete your temp internet files, cookies, and history, run spy ware everything and delete it all. Run a virus scanner, and then if that doesnt work thing about a reformat. Also try going into add/remove programs and get rid of anyhting you dont like, or things you yourself did not install or that did not come preinstalled.
