Hmm, speaking of "hand removed", I actually did that this morning and IT has been very quiet. I've not had a pop-up interruption since I hand removed the same 'programs' that have been installing themselves, BY themselves onto my desktop. I went into 'my computer' section and deleted them one by one... there were three very pesky ones and that's deleted and not just taking them from the desktop and putting them in the recycling bin. It seems to have worked, however, I've not re-booted the pc today yet. :} AdAware did reduce the amount significantly... down to those three.

Thanks! I'll keep you posted.
