There is a lot of concern (and rightly so) about programs containing Adware and Spyware finding their way onto ones computers.Eliminate all the junk with the following two free programs. I use them both and they are great. AdAware http://lavasoft.element5.com/support/download/ SpyBot http://spybot.eon.net.au/index.php?lang=en&page=download |

I use Spybot, and YES, I agree it's excellent. It does a "search & destroy" command with good details about the privacy policies of each find. Then you have the option to destroy. donna |

Both programs are good but don't remove all the parasites in my experience. Using the new Google toolbar has helped control the popups for me. |
