Those ubiquitous porn sites will drive you mad!
And they pop regardless what you are lookin' for and sometimes so fast you can't click them fast enough... bastards. ...and not to mention when you search for something entirely unrelated all these porn sites come up...

I like the Lavasoft and there's another Porn Scan or something that removes porn and all traces of it (PowerScan!)...

haha i soooo know how u feel!

The quickest way I can close the windows is by a quick right-hand motion to Alt+F4.

google's toolbar might be of use too.

Use Ad-Aware. Make sure you hit the check for updates link every week or so to freshen up your reference file data.

A free dl is 'CT cookie spy' from download.com or wherever .........it lists all cookies .......... so ones you know you can keep like mbuddy for passwords et al , and the rest you can turf.

also 'pop-up stopper' has an integrated browser feature that zaps them b4 they open unless you hold down the shift key and want it to load ....... very useful in my house

that used to happen to me, but then i put up a built in firewall and my problems were solved.

adaware works great. ran it and i detected 422 spyware/adware

The best way to get rid of spyware or viruses is to put your computer in safe mode and run virus scanners. I use ad-aware and norton's at the same time. Most viruses and spyware don't run in safe-mode but the viruse scanners detect them. Some viruses you might have to restart the computer, and then when it reboots your virus scanner will remove it.

Porn Popups SUCK =( Boooo!!lol

O.oo...someone has been looking at some p0rn lately?

These are some handy ADWARE/SPYWARE tools:

All the below programs are FREE:

1) Ad-Aware: www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware
This is a great ad aware removal tools
2) Spy-Bot Search & Destroy: www.safer-networking.org
Best companion to be used with ad-aware.
3) Hijack This and CWShredder: www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html (Hijack This & CWShredder)
This works to protects your browser security (some sites they change your homepage, add their own toolbar etc).
4) BHODemon: www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm
Works for your browser as well.

You can also do a free online scan: PEST SCAN

Now for pop ups. Google toolbar has a pop up blocker which is quite handy (although I'm pretty sure that they log our surfing habit (if you do search on the toolbar) which I don't mind.

Alternatively, you can download Firefox browser

If you get dialler, u really should be getting trojan sniffer like a2 personal (this is free) or tds-3.

Thanks for that list paxy.

Ive been really paranoid because my last PC got ruined by spyware, adware and trojans.

Np Matt

This is the site where u can download the trojan sniffer : http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/personal/

Especially if you are on broadband/cable, you should get firewall there are free ones that u can get Zone Alarm or Kerio.
