You fail to say if you have an antivirus and have scanned. If you don't have an antivirus installed you can run what is known as "OnLine Virus Scan", from the servers of Kerparsky Labs., Russia. Rated # 1, in the world for virus detection.
http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
If you need a free antivirus to install with the same engine from AOL, free Active Virus Shield, Powered by Kaspersky. You will get auto updates every hour on the hour, plus a real time scanner that runs in the background.
AOL will only ask you for your email so they can you a free key good for one year. After one year req., a new key.

Scan your PC with these, both are free and safe to use. It should remove adultfinder.
Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free.

It depends on the websites you are going to. Some websites take advertising funds from adultfriend and the actual site is causing it to happen. In the most recent edition of internet explorer there is a popup blocker that prevents anything like that from appearing.
Also if you buy Mcaffee or Norton antivirus it will cleanse any viruses you may have and prevent new ones.

The antivirus you have is not detecting all the virus strains in your computer. Make sure that you get a quality antivirus (Bitdefender and Kaspersky are two anti virus that are pretty good). Do a complete system scan and make sure that you are not connected to the internet while running your system. Good luck.

Make sure AVG is completely updated, go into safe mode, and run it again. However, I think that it's spyware.
Run SpyBot Search and Destroy and Ad-Aware, both available from Download.com, in safe mode. Delete everything don't quantine it. If this doesn't work, go to Ad/Remove Programs, delete everything you don't know, then do CTR-ALT-DEL and anything sounding fishy, delete. The worst you can do is crash the computer, but it will start up just fine.
Remember that explorer.exe is good, while partygirls.exe is bad.
If you find what was causing it using CTRL-ALT-DEL, go to Run, MSCONFIG, and make sure it doesn't start up when you restart your computer. Use Search to find the .exe file, and delete it.
Good luck!

You are going to want to also run a spyware program Adaware and Spybot are free. Also consider getting windows Defender.
Is AVG deleting them? some viruses AVG cannot delete so go into safe mode and run it.

You are fine with AVG, my brother the comp tech ( I am studying myself) use it. But you do need a good pop up blocker.
http://toolbar.google.com/T4/index_pack.html
That will keep most pop ups from occuring.
And you need Adaware, from Lavasoft
www.lavasoft.com
If you run Internet Explorer, then you need IE Privacy Keeper with cleans out your temporary internet files, including the index.dat file, and that is at
http://www.download.com/IE-Privacy-Keeper/3000-2144_4-10389683.html
But first off you need a great pop up blocker. There are several out there, but I use the google toolbar one, and it works great for me.
Good luck

Sounds like you have got the spyware Download Small on your machine - as well as anti-virus, you need anti-spyware. Go to http://www.ewdio.net/en and download install and run AVG anti-spyware and it should stop this altogether by either quarantining or deleting infecting files as appropriate.
