RE: pasting spyware
you get this when copying a link into internet explorer? (thats what i get)


Edit: i have the original site on my clipboard, then i paste it into IE and it goes to something liek that (only when i paste it from my hotmail site)

RE: pasting spyware
you can get rid of adware easily, here are the best programs (i think) that you can use to get rid of spy/adware:

:google:

Spybot Search & Destroy
Ad-aware Se Personal

and if you want to clean registry:

TweakNow RegCleaner
