Hi there!
This is so frustrating. I don't know where the problem is. Could someone please check this out. I have tried out many scanners, but I haven't really found something thas is bothering my computer.

When I am surfing on the net via IE7 sometimes I recieve an ad window, this is really annoying.

Here is my HJT logfile:

Hi Tonnekand welcome to Tom Coyote forums

I am currently looking over your log. As I am an Undergraduate, everything that I post to you must be checked by an Admin or Moderator. Thus, there may be a tiny bit of a delay between posts, but it shouldn't be too long. I will post back shortly with a potential fix.

Thanks for your patience!
Thanks dan

Hi Tonnek

Download Findlop.zip by Metallica from here and save it to your Desktop.
You will need to extract the file(s).
To do this: Right click on the zipped folder and from the menu that appears, click on Extract All…
In the 'Extraction Wizard' window that opens, click on Next> and in the next window that appears, click on Next> again.
In the final window, click on Finish

You should now see the contents of the findlop folder.
Double click findlop.bat to run it. A Notepad window entitled findlop.txt will open - copy and paste this into your next reply.
Thanks dan
