I've tried all of the anti-virus and spyware programs, including AdAware and Roguekiller. Anybody know how to get rid of them?

I'm watching this with interest, my wife has it on her PC, happens on all sites randomly, I just can't figure out how to get rid of the thing. I've tried pop up blockers,, Malwarebytes etc.. it just won't go away.

I'm almost at the point of formatting the hard drive and starting again, once I've backed up all her rubbish of course.

I'm seeing it on all sites everytime I change pages. I've been searching for a solution, but it seems it's immune to everything. Some said Roguekiller worked, but I tried it several tmes and no go. I tried Avast and a couple more also.

Have you tried running Kaspersky rootkit killer tool ? It's downloadable from their site and it's free.

Have you tried 'Bullguard' Denny? Every now and then I download the freebie and give the system a good going over. Did Mcaffee then Avast then Bullguard, I've done away with the report now but BG found a malware less than an hour after the other 2 said I was 'clean'. (I did uninstall each before installing the other so they don't conflict)

Kaspersky quarantined the problem, but the blank window kept popping up. The other security programs didn't see it at all.

Bev suggested Bullgauard. I first uninstalled Kaspersky, then installed the free bullguard program, and it found the culprit and deleted it on the quick scan mode. the log shows malware cookie.adserver cookie.advertising. Feeble minded people, thinking people would respond to that type of advertising. Btw, I did not use safe mode for this.

Thanks Bev. I'll report further if anything happens.

No Bren, but I've made a note.

Thanks,
