    Annoying Adverts
    Hi !

    Each time when I open my Internet Explorer (6.0) , advert messages pop up. I think they do reside in the memory. How can I get rid of them please ?

    Thanks

    Try running your spyware remover in Safe Mode. I recommend MS AntiSpyware and Spysweeper, available at www.spysweeper.com to resolve your adware issue. They should handle your problem in no time.

    Try emptying your Temporary Internet Files folder.
    Or you could use Firefox instead.

    In addition to the temporary internet files, delete also all cookies.

    Adware
    You have adware installed on your PC. Go to www.lavasoftusa.com and download their free ad-aware software and it will remove all the garbage. Then stop using internet explorer ans start using Firefox from mozilla.org. it's a small download and is far superior to internet explorer. After you dwonload it you will need to install flash from macromedia and java from sun you will never seee another popup again and most likely will also eliminate all spyware from your computer for good.

    Help
    I suggest a combo of several programs

    Spybot search and destroy
    Adware SE
    Spysweeper
    Spyware Eliminator

    Also download the Google Toolbar, it has a built in pop up blocker that works fine.
