For getting adware/spyware off your system, I'd go for either Ad-Aware or Spybot Search & Destroy.

For pop-ups or banners, I'd go for ZoneAlarm Pro instead; it's a firewall primarily, but the Pro version also takes care of banner ads & pop-ups as well - Bonus :w00t:

so that ad watch thingy gets rid of popups? I tried it and it only blocked 1 in medium settings.

The ad-watch you get as part of Ad-Aware, I'd disable if you can - Had too much hassle with it when it did less of a job than a firewall did.

Just use ZoneAlarm Pro or another firewall, and the number of pop-ups you receive should drop drastically :D

make sure u get AdAware6 Proffessional off kazaa, the older versions arnt as good.
Then do an online update.. they update the Spyware Definitions like every week.

Also, download the newest HOSTS file from the Kazaa Lite website.
