    CharV:

    Has a Spybot scan or your antivirus scan revealed anything?

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.


    Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition running on a 2.40GHz IntelŪ PentiumŪ 4 Processor with 512 MB of RAM and a 533 MHz System Bus.

    Here is a direct download link you could try:
    http://www.spybotupdates.com/files/spybotsd152.exe

    If that doesn't work out,or you run Spybot and you are still having problems afterwards,you could ask for help in malware removal.

    The instructions are here:

    The computer is a secondary one that has nothing on it - Everytime I try to down load this program or windows it closes everything down. It allows me to go to other sites. I am getting innondated with popups.
