    I always seem to find friends in low places ! Microsoft antispyware seems a good one to try.

    I still have a link to Giant antispyware if interested .

    I think I got it. PC ran all night and no pop ups when I got up this morning. I installed a program called giants antispy that would ID the problem. The trouble giants would not get rid of it Permanently.

    It was 2 keys in the registry called IST. I had to manualy get rid of it working in safe mode. Every time giants did it or I did it in normal windows mode it would come back within minuates...

    That was one of the hardest spywares I every had to get rid of.

    The shell may look dutch (don't know if you can set it to english?) but it's a great package!

    http://www.hitmanpro.nl/

    Hitman Pro is an all-in-one solution against spyware, it uses multiple well known anti-spyware programs like:

    Ad-Aware SE 6.2
    Webroot SpySweeper 3
    Spybot Search & Destroy 1.3
    SpywareBlaster 3.2
    McAfee Stinger

    use babelfish if you can't read dutch
