About every other time I open a webpage I get a popup. The computer and IE is much slowed down, and I keep getting pop-ups of *ahem* spyware removal, and then "Windows alert messages" that I should download these. Most prevalent among these is WinAntiVirusPro 2007. Also Norton keeps blocking intrusion attempts

Download and install Trendmicros Hijackthis (http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/threat_analytics/hijackthis.php?page=download)

Download the Trendmicro Hijackthis Installer, follow defauts and it will install in C:\Program Files\Trendmicro\Hijackthis and this is exactly where we want it to be.

DO NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
