Recently, when I start my PC, I get a load of pop-ups (screen savers and crap like that) appearing. Only happens as soon as I start my PC and open Explorer. I ran Ad-aware and Spybot but still can't pick it up. Any advice where I could look to stop this annoying crap?
TIA

Hey Raf,

Do you have anti-virus software? Make sure you update it and run it though..

Also, if you already haven't done so, make sure ad-aware and spypot have been updated to the latest definitions..

Thirdly, try a different browser, I recommend Mozilla Firefox, it is leaps and bounds ahead of interent explorer in security and functionality..

Hope this helps
