Pop-ups etc
I have a pop-up for WinFixer coming up really often - any way to stop it? Also, 'SideFind' - an annoying search engine thing has appeared - there is an icon for it alongside my 'favourites' and 'history' icons at the top of the window. It doesn't show up when I got to control panel and add/remove programs though! any suggestions?
Thanks!

download this also, and give it a whirl. Its been keeping me quite spyware free for a while now. But you must update it on a regular basis and do a scan around once a week.
