Well I've tried Spy Bot, Adaware, Ewido, Avast, and lots of little things people have told me about like BHO Cop, Etc.... So you guys are my last resort to a full format. Well in addition to a few pop-ups, outlook randomly starts and puts in an address to send mail. I get internet explorer errors like mad IEXPLORE.exe will not shut down even if I TM close it. My hard drive blinks way too much, and when I try to navigate my computer in explorer i get like one or two windows in and it freezes. I think there is a problem. Each program finds a million tracking cookies even if i never went to a website. In fact I have to type this on firefox which i downloaded before IE quit. The same problems also keep returning. The computer clicks like crazy all by itself even if I just boot it up and let it sit. Advertising.com, CoreMetrics, DoubleClick, FastClick, HitBox, and lastly SearchSpy are almost always there. The last is the only trojan I believe. Anyways I'm not sure exactly what to do, but my friend said to also post my Hijack this summary. Any help at all is much appreciated. Thanks!!

Hi

Its not uncommon to wait for three/four or five days
I dont understand why folks assume help forums can assist any quicker

If you do format be sure to first, Install and update an antivirus program and third party firewall then go get all windows updates before anything else.
