Heres some easy ways to speed up your computer and keep it safe! Check for problems as well to see what's going on with your XP updates with these programs. Virus's generally attack the anti-virus program to remain undetected by your running program. It truly sucks but the checkups will help you with any virus's and spyware.
Run the spyware and virus programs. Download system mechanic for the 30 day trial. You will love it!
Good luck! For the spyware scan and virus protection free try any of these :

I would also download Firefox browser as it appears from what I am reading Internet Explorer is generating many problems with many systems currently.

You can try this:
1.) open control panel
2.) double click on "Administrative Tools"
3.) double click on "Services"
4.) find "Messenger" in the list to the left
5.) right click and chose stop
If nothing changes try stopping "Alerter" in that list as well. If the problem is still there, start both of the two services that you have stopped following the same method but choosing the different options to start it, and you'll need to post a more descriptive message(ie. if any error codes, etc.).

I use AD-AWARE SE and it works pretty good. I run the program every day. We also have AVG Anti virus which also removes some of the spy ware. They both have free downloads.

It must be a page you keep visiting that has the spyware & it loads each time you visit the page. Maybe change the windows security center settings - lower them or something ? so they will allow it -or just keep removing it. (tedious.)

Hi, there maybe something virus with your IE.
i recommand you to try firefox. which is more safe than IE.
it can block that annoying ads and disable any virus on webpage. as you know, most virus are spread through internet.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.
Download firefox for free in here:
