I've run Microsoft Anti Spyware, Super Ad Blocker, Spybot S and D,
ewido, Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE Personal.

None of them seem to detect/get rid of my problem. I have popups and
more recently my computer has been shutting down. The popups do NOT
seem tied to the particular site I am at.

Thanks

When you get these pop-ups does it indicate "Messenger Service" in the top portion ?

Hello,

It can be extremely frustrating when encountering spyware that your
current tools cannot detect. The spyware mutates so fast, and so many
new variants come out daily.

You may wish to try Super Ad Blocker | SUPERAntispyware as we do focus
on the harder to detect and remove problems:
http://www.superadblocker.com

Super Ad Blocker is designed to be quick and easy for end-users with no
complicated setup or configuration.

On a technical side, Super Ad Blocker | SUPERAntiSpyware offers several
unique features such as using a system level driver to delete detected
items, so pests do not come back once detected and cleaned.

Super Ad Blocker offers a fully functional 15-day trial. You can scan
and clean your computer and then remove Super Ad Blocker if you do not
wish to keep it. We do appreciate when users support our development
efforts by purchasing the product :)

If that does not find and/or remove the spyware/adware on your machine,
you can submit a diagnostic and I will diagnose your machine for free
and post the results back to the group and update our rules with
anything found:

Thanks for your replies Nick. I got a response about my diagnostic.
However, it asks me to run SAB but at this point my trial is over. Any way
around this besides buying at this point?
 
Please e-mail me directly at (e-mail address removed) and I will send
you a code. I am not sure which of the diagnostics we responded to was
yours to match it to the e-mail.

Nick,

Thanks, customer service already helped me with that.

I tried the fix, and everything looks OK so far. I'll keep you updated.

Thank you so much for your help
 
Running beautifully so far! One question: it seems that I needed to run
SAB in safe mode. Is this common (if I have a problem again, will I need to
go to safe mode or can I run it from the normal mode?)

I'm going to spread the word on this program.
 
It really depends on the type of infection. Super Ad Blocker will stop
"most" installations of new spyware/adware/malware and we update our
rules daily, so you really should be able to scan in normal mode. Only
when a rootkit/kernel driver comes into play do you need to boot in
safe mode.

We just released a free product called "BootSafe" today that simplifies
the process of booting into safe mode and back to normal mode:
