Spybot has found this, ive ran spysweeper, spybot, adaware, and now im currently running ewido anti-malware. Which is still scanning and finding stuff that that the others never did. Didnt know there was so much on here. I keep having your computer is in danger windows security center has detected spyware/adaware infection blah blah blah. I have windows xp pro and SP1. I have a hijack this scan but wont post that yet. This popup is very annoying and i need help removing it. Thinking about formatting, need to anyway but dont want to yet.
