Im getting bombed by pop ups and being redirected when I visit a website.
As a matter of fact I just got a window pop while trying to type this ..
I have tried to find what was on my computer for garbage and have been unsuccessful.
What are the extensions to check into my system and delete this,my spyware and virus control have been useless

Im currently useing
AVG Virus protection
Xcleaner.exe
Spybot search and destroy
and Ad-Aware SE
Googles tool bar with Popup blocker
None of these programs are getting rid
of the problem.

If your using Internet Explorer or FireFox try the yahoo toolbar, its free and provides a popup blocker, and a button to scan for antispyware....
http://toolbar.yahoo.com/
Also try adawre se, a free antispyware program.

Here is a simple tutorial on how to cleanup your computer. They are real basic steps, but it is a good first step to take and will often clean out 95% of the junk (such as spyware, viruses, etc) off your computer. All the tools used are free of use. Here is the link:

Be sure to read the entire thing through. You should try scanning in SafeMode.

apparently even the answers you got before me isn't going to work since you have already do those things. norton isn't going to do anything but slow your system down even more. it sounds like you have more of a malware problem than adware. goto prevx and download it. it WILL get rid of evrything and make your system back to normal. click on the red download button. it is a trial but the full program and repairs evrything as the full program unlike those trials that only tell you what is wrong then have to pay for it to fix things....
