I haven't had any major troubles with Spyware until a couple days ago. Now, I keep getting a zillion pop-up ads. A few mintutes after I scan Ad-Aware the ads start comming again (I have a pop-up blocker BTW)! Any other way to stop this garbage?!

Do you use a router with a firewall?

Which pop-up blocker are you using? Some of them are actually spyware programs, too (PopSwatter in particular, but actually Google and Yahoo technically have spyware components).

One quick question:
Do you have Gator installed. That thing is loaded with spyware. It even tries to update itself after you think it is uninstalled.Jim
