I have definitely had a spyware and dialers(cool web
search)problem. I knew enough to run Adware and SpyBot
and cwshredder. These are all free programs and appear
to identify and remove the culprits but then each time
the system rebbots they are still there. They have taken
over the home page and eventually porn advertisement will
come up. More recommendations or is there a program I
should purchase.

Thanks for any assistance someone can give.
 
Kelly,
Make *sure* you are using the latest version of CWShredder ....
