Almost three weeks now since I wiped my hard drive and reinstalled all my programs and no sign of "spyonyou" or the 2-3 other noxious websites that were popping up. I still visit Drudge, FreeRepublic and all my usual sites.

Hi - Thanks for the update. I still get spyonyou but I haven't been getting the other (obnoxious/porno) ones. I have detected and deleted a couple of "back-door trojan horses" and installed (Ad-Subtract) popup killer, still get spyonyou.

I guess you approach is the one that works - been trying to avoid it, I have 57 Gigs of stuff on my 80 gig drive. We're talking many hours of re-installing and restoring, just to avoid Xing that popup. One day I'll do it.
