target saver is an adware. it's probably installed on your computer and causes problems like you have described. you don't need antispyware program to remove this pesky thig, as there are couple of files only that you need to delete so you van delete it manually. take a look at target saver description: http://www.2-spyware.com/remove-target-saver.html

I would go to kaspersky.com and use the online virus/spyware scanner they have to find and remove the malicious software. Not all pop-up blockers remove all pop-ups. One good pop-up blocker toolbar is made by yahoo coincidentally called the Yahoo Toolbar. You can download this at toolbar.yahoo.com
Good Luck...

in case you run a version of residing house windows XP, then you certainly can get the provider %. 2 for unfastened from the Microsoft website which comes with a pop-up blocker. yet no longer all of us makes use of XP, so which you additionally can attempt to look for Pop-Up Stopper unfastened version, KillAd, SamrtPopUp Blocker. lots of them are unfastened yet i prefer to propose that when you come across one you like, pay for the full application so as which you would be able to get each and every of the advantages. happy pop-up looking!

This is spyware.... You will need to try some other scanners if yahoo and norton aren't working. Try Spybot Search & Destory or Microsoft's Defender.

Scan with a different anti-spyware program, there are better ones
out there. I found this list pretty good, has nice free ones.
