Whenever I open Internet Explorer it always goes to this other weird site instead of my home page.

Then a pop up comes up even though i have a pop-up blocker that almost works perfectly all the time.

And so now I am almost unable to do anything, because after a few seconds i'm redirected back to that weird page that tells me to download something (I haven't btw)

So how do i remove this crap from my computer? Is there a process or a program? and how can I stop this from happening anytime soon?

I'm assuming that you have already done an anti-virus scan, with updated definitions, and that it didn't make any difference ... ? If you haven't, then do one. And if that doesn't help ...

Definitely, download and run Ad-Aware AND SpyBot Search & Destroy. Since there are nasties that each program is better at cleaning, using both of them is an excellent idea.

If you still have the same problem with pop-ups and your home page after you run the two programs, visit an online forum that specializes in helping users with cleaning up spyware/adware. Here are two:

Spyware Warrior - http://spywarewarrior.com/index.html
AumHa Forums - http://forum.aumha.org/

There are plenty of good ones around. I recommend these two because I've worked with them before. If you're familiar with another good anti-spyware forum, by all means go ahead and drop them a line.

Whatever online forum you contact, make sure that you tell them up front everything you've done so far to try and fix the problem, and follow their instructions to the letter. That way, you'll help them to help you out. Good luck!

I think if you download Yahoo toolbar or Google Toolbar you can get rid of these Pop-ups. For spywares, download anti spyware software. Spyware softwares clean all unwanted links and files that are downloaded and using your memory unwantedly.

with regard to the undercover agent ware, purely verify what exe record does it run, then bypass to run menu, and run=msconfig, go with selective startup and disbale that exe record to start everytime ur laptop starts off. if lower back there is reoccurance then receive a stable anti undercover agent and eliminate that undercover agent ware. for the cd burning concern, jsut try re-installation the softwear and then too if ur concern isn't solved then get ur force serviced and lens wiped sparkling. wish my suggestion facilitates u.
