Pop-up help needed

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

Nah, took it to assessors yesterday. Hoping to get the go ahead anytime now. Still have to wait for Vollkommen to schedule it. Hopefully before the DOVW

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
