Go to www.adaware.com. Download the free adaware tool. It'll clean all the gunk out of your machine.

Is that www.adware.com or www.adaware.com?

I have both AdAware and Spybot Search and Destroy plus a registry cleaner. I got a Download Trojan last week and have been running scans over and over.

I also have Norton with Symantics update but I am getting popups like crazy in spite of MS blocker and also getting new icons on my desktop.

Nothing seems to be working!

It didn't clean all mine.

I have spysweeper, Norton, AVG, Microslop's new beta spy thing . . . I think I uninstalled adaware--kept missing too many things.

Even with all the above, I don't think I get everything and my system is bogged down during searches something fierce. But I'm torn about what to uninstall.

Norton is infuriating. But I like some of their utilities functions etc. etc. Would still like to have an alternative to the NORTON functions I like.
