Theres a lot of ways for these guys to get your number but since so many ISP's collect info on our activities and some have been known to sell or offer that info I cant begin to think of how to 100% eliminate them.

Since some of the more popular programs have been named how do the adware ones perform?

And dont forget to delete the cookies they drop on you either.

proxymotron. i have it and it works awesome. i have 56k tho so i don't really have much problems with pop ups but i think it will work for you. its worth a try at least. don't have any idea where you can download it, but put a search for "proxymotron" and see what comes up. if worse comes to worse contact me and i'll see if i can send it to you.

Make sure you update you Ad-Aware by either clicking where it says "Check for updates now" or on the picture of the world and magnify glass. When it's done searching make sure you put a check mark on all the files it found so it will delete them.

You could also try SpyBot, I run both of them. They seem to find different things at times.

Ad-aware is the shiznit...

Pop up blockers and killers don't do chit compared to ad-aware...

AdAware doesn't block all pop up ads, some websites have ads that pop up when you go to them (no harm no foul, just annoying.) What AdAware does is delete files that have been skulked onto your pc, which in some cases will cause ads to open in other cases can even track your keystrokes. Popup blockers can help block ads when they pop up but they don't stop the spyware from being loaded on to your pc.

Ok, first of all shorten your damn signature.

Then clear out your cookies and temporary internet files. Window Washer is a good program that removes all 'traces' left behind. Then run AdAware and remove all spyware.

I do this like once every 3 weeks or so, and I don't get any rando popups. Just ads on websites, but who cares about them, its easy enough to exit out of.

What you want is a program called Pop up Defender and it FREE.
I run it and it works great . If I would leave my computer for an hour or so there would be 50 pop up adds on it. Now, not even one. Worked for me give it a shot!!!

you need to delete your cookies, download a program called KiWasher, it is a program that you run to delete your internet cache along with your computer cache. The best part is that you can keep cookies that you want so you dont have to log into everything everytime. I use it here at work, I go to soooo many sites that require a username and password. I have no complaints.

Here is the link:
