U-R-B-R-V, please read the thread and realize that we have covered those two items in much fuller detail at least 5 times.

XoftSpy, Firefox, and Microsoft Antispyware should be enough for you.

And leaving already? :P

Most likely not. Not now after seeing multiple solutions.

I was going to use this against you, but then I read your post again.

I don't get it.

If you can't get rid of spyware, post a picture of the spyware you are recieving. I know of pretty much all the spyware you could have run into.

Knowledge is your best friend. Just because it is very quick, does not mean that it isn't the most effective. There is a reason it costs a heap of money.

Before this goes any further.. BCLR, just one one of the tools we have mentioned and stop clicking on pop-ups from other sites. Get Firefox and or use the latest pop-up blocker in I.E. Much of Spyware comes down to the sites you visit and the things you click on, so make the right choices.

Also an error pops up every so often with the popups saying that there is something wrong with the internet.

I would just like to point out to you that this is probably your problem. What do you do when these error messages pop up?

That is the error I get. As for now I will try tnyhwk900's solution and edit this post telling you if it worked.

The point is, once this stuff is gone, don't click on any popups. If a lil things asks you to install something randomly when you go to a site, and you don't know for sure that it's something safe, don't agree to install it. Most spyware gets in because you just carelessly clicked on something you shouldn't have. That's why a lot of popups will disguise themselves to look like error messages where you think you should just go ahead and click "okay" especially if that's the only option. Usually when I see an error message, I click the close button rather than clicking any of the options, just to be sure.

Be sure to "buy" Registry Mechanic, as well. Run one or more of these removal apps in safe mode, then immediately run Registry Mechanic to clean up any registry entries that regenerate their files. Since the initial file is gone after the removal, and it can't regenerate itself in Safe Mode, the registry mechanic determines that the entry is useless and cleans it. Reboot, and you're all good!

THIS TOOK ME FOREVER TO WRITE. It had better fix your problem.

It didn't work. I was the mictosoft one. I think I might have messed up somewhere along the road, but I will try the fire fox.

I'm totally with tny on this one. MS antispyware worked GREAT for me and got rid of things adaware didn't catch. Perhaps Xoftspy is better, I haven't tried it, but I am completely satisfied with MS antispyware.
