Hi all,

I use Mozilla Firefox and did not think I would suffer from the pop-unders, but as of today it seems like I get all of the pop-under ads. I normally have SpywareBlaster running to prevent spyware from being installed, but I don't know what happened today. I've tried running Ad-aware and Spybot Search & Destroy like everyone else, but neither has detected an spyware. Here's my log. I hope someone can help me. Thanks.

I'm not sure what to do since I haven't received a response on how to remove this adware. The ads are getting worse. Short of completely reformatting my hard drive, I don't what else there is to do. I haven't used Hijackthis and just want the spyware off of my computer. Could someone please help me out. Thanks.

Are you using this Domain?

Sorry to be responding so late, but I had a midterm and paper due. I do use the ASU domain.
