I'm getting increasingly annoyed with a Popuppers
Advertisement Window which automatically pops up at
startup...even before I'm on line.
How can I get rid of it?
I thought that Microsoft AntiSpyware would fix it but it
doesn't seem to recognise it or pick it up at all.
On Advanced Tools/System Explorers I thought I had
located the file under Startup,firstly blocked then
deleted it (or so I thought!) but it's still there.
Please help!!

Maybe with MSAS in safe mode.

But to start with this is probably better .

http://aumha.org/a/quickfix.htm
 
Run a full System Scan in Safe Mode. On the Scan Page choose Scan Options >
Full System Scan.
 
Boot into Safe Mode (F8) at startup;

Empty your temporary files AND your Temporary Internet Files C:\Documents

and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files folder ;

Run the scan while in safe mode;

If you are running SP2, open IE--->Tools--->Manage Add-ons, and uncheck any

BHO's that you don't recognize.
 
If you have spyware that AntiSpy
can't get rid of and you would like some free advice from
a veteran of the spyware wars then get HijackThis from

http://tomcoyote.org/hjt/hjt199//HijackThis.exe

If the above wraps and won't open then use:

http://tinyurl.com/67reb

Save it (preferably to its own folder) then Open it and
select the SCAN AND SAVE LOG option.

Note where you save the log and then send it to me as an
attachment with a short note about your problem. Put
HijackThis in the subject so I will know it's not spam. I
will be glad to look at it and tell you what to do to get
rid of it for good.

Why am I doing this? I work as a Network Engineer but
unless there is a problem I have nothing to do and I'm
bored to death and besides I hate spyware. If you are
worried that I might be a scam artist you can check out my
profile on the HP forum:
