I keep getting pop-ups that say I have multiple registry errors that could cause harm to my computer. I know this is some kind of crap and want to get rid of it all.

I ran Adaware SE and Spybot Search and Destroy and they are still happening .... what can I do?

I am also going to run AVG Free

(can't afford anything other than the free ones right now)
