O.P. Adware/spyware
i have adware/spyware on my computer and have the following removal programs: Spybot seach and destory, Pest Patrol, Ad-aware 6 and Windows washer. all these programs cant seem to get rid of it. sometimes it opens and stays open and other times it opens for a few seconds and then closes..i dont know whether one of the programs are closing it down. i will paste the site it directs me to when i cant get it.. anybody have any solutions to my problem?

RE: Adware/spyware
well, some more details would be nice!

My first guess is to check the Browser Helper Objects.

Make sure you update the definitions on all of those programs, then try a virus scan and if that does not work try looking for strange applications running or search through your hdd for programs that you have not installed. :p
