How do I kill off an annoying popup
called "AdBlaster.info"?

It periodically opens a small blank window which expands
in size to about 2" by 2" and then shrinks away to nothing
if left alone. It can also be closed by clicking the
corner "X".
 
Hi Arch,

Download Spybot - Search & Destroy: http://www.tomcoyote.org/SPYBOT/
It detects and removes all kinds of spyware, dialers, hijackers, and related nasties.

After installing, press Online, and search for, put a check mark at, and install all updates.

Now close all browser windows, hit 'Check for Problems', and have SpyBot remove all it finds.
When you've done all that, test your system, and see whether your problem is gone.

If it isn't, go to http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/ , and download Hijack This.

Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, and save the log somewhere

Next, go to http://www.spywareinfo.com/forums/

Sign in, go to the Spyware and Hijackware Removal section, press "new topic", explain your
problem, and copy and paste the contents of the Hijack This log into your new message. You'll get
expert assistance in dealing with your problem.
