Now i mention it, i'm not 100% sure it's causing pop ups, but i know it's wrong! I just don't know how i got it or what to do. Thanks again. No rush. It's probably nothing. (Well, i hope it isn't!)

thanks for the reply, LDTate but when i go to click on: ''Restore Microsofts Host File'' which is the button i presume you mean, it doesn't let me click it? I'm probably doing something wrong, but i can't think what. Do i need to press something else before i can click that? EDIT: It's ok now i done it, just gonna restart :)

Did you just double click it?


No, you have to click: ''make hosts writable'' in the top right corner, then press the ''restore'' option :)

Thanks for the info :thumbup:

Looks pretty good, only 3 that aren't needed.

Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"

Reboot and let me know how it's running.
