I've had good results using Malwarebytes to remove this crap.

http://www.malwarebytes.org/

If you still get the crap after running Malwarebytes, try booting into Safe Mode and running it.

Not sure what you've got, but go to www.malwarebytes.org and download and run Malwarebytes. It's free and is great at removing malware/spyware, etc.

Also, you may want to get CC Cleaner. It cleans up your system and is good at fixing registry errors.

Check out www.majorgeeks.com. They have some really cool utilities and technical stuff that will help with just what you're dealing with.

I just did a google search on your behalf and came across a posting about an app which causes your computer to display “facebook sluts,” as well as advice about getting rid of it. My guess is that you’re the victim of some kind of malware... good luck trying to get rid of it. I think that concentrated efforts with better experts than me can help you out.

ShadowAce, this sounds like a job for your Tech Ping List. Celtic Cross complains of naked women popping up on his screen. Probably has some malware.

Obviously, if Celtic Cross were me, there would be no problem. Women run away when I am around — they never have time to get naked.

Perhaps the TP list has a better solution.

Happy New Year

Try a system restore back as far as you can get.

We have, but it was beyond us; so we took the computer to get the professionals to clean it up. - Maybe some site you were on dropped some advertising cookies on you.

what antivirus are you using?
superantispyware is a great anti malware.
hitman pro3.5 is a great antivirus/rootkit, package free for 30 days, and can be run from a usbstick, with other installed antivirus packages. Also secunia psi(free) will keep other programs on system up to date, minimizing other attack vectors.
