The survival time for a computer online without a firewall before it is infected is 18 minutes. After a certain point, they are very hard to clean. You need to get the install disk and the drivers and re-install your system. Get someone to put updates on a disk for you so you are updated and firewalled before you go online. Use the back-up utility to make a back-up and make sure that this works so it will be much less trouble the next time. If you can't get the install disk, consider getting a fresh copy of Windows...

technically, u shud be formatting the windows and then re-installing it. if ur problem started after u started filling survey forms and stuff, u shud take precautions to ensure that ur hard disk is not damaged. take a backup and format.
after that, download a pop up blocker. u can use either the yahoo or the google one. a good anti-virus like macafee shud take care of adware and spyware problems.
