Pac, a similar thing happened to me when my PC was brand new. I was hijacked, and I tried to rid myself of trojans and adware for 7 days, cause I was afraid I'd be charged a handsome price. Well, after 7 days I had no choice but to seek help, cause I'd grown weary and even more afraid that irreparable damage might be done. I went to Microsoft's site 1care. Their I downloaded the antivirus package, and i hr. later I emailed them about the problem. Mr. Chang responded quickly and within 45 minutes he had walked me thru steps that would free up my computer! Boy, was I happy. And most of all, it cost me nothing!!! Take whatever avenue you choose, but that's what I did.
                                                                   Good Luck!

I use their "RegCure" product on a regular basis and like it real well:

RegCure Registry Cleaner
Enhance your PC. Enhance your life! Let RegCure reveal
your system's true potential!

They have many other products that might be the fix your looking for.

I think my RegCure product cost me $26.00

Thanx all for your help. I just installed Trend micro, with a 30 day trial. It eliminated 114 threats, but some are still hanging around. I'll try some of the other suggestions made here. Again thanx to all.

I like Registry Well and Registry Mechanic. Not free.

I do too Emily.

But thanx for everyone's reply, especially Konane because since the Trend Micro ran and got rid of everything, I haven't even had a pop-up since. Good ridance.

You gotta love the LP community.

Pac you're more than welcome ... happy things are running smoother.

Free XP registry cleaner .... if memory serves me it was highly recommended in an article on PC Pitstop.com. I've run it a few times with success, fairly simple instructions. Download site is MajorGeeks.com which is a good download site in my opinion.
