Spyware programs need to be running not virus ones.

I thought it was just me and put it down to some dodgy sites I have been on.

Kept coming up with a glory hole one- random as I havent been on any.

I ran adaware se and it hasn't done it since.

MOOSE- go to www.download.com and type in the search box

ADAWARE SE and then down load the personal version.

Job done.

Get Ad-Aware Personal SE, and also get Spy Bot aswell - always wise to get two scanners, so when you scan, the other will get the ones the first one missed

Also do a Google search for SPYWARE GUARD, which is a good programme that is a real-time spyware scanner, much like how AVG works for virus, as it constantly monitors the PC's activities to stop spyware installing and getting on your PC - I got it and it runs all the time in the backround, and now when I scan I get far, FAR less stuff found by Ad-Aware and Spy Bot - good programme!
