Hello,

Please help me. My operating system is Windows XP. I downloaded a software called ??????_fastest_BitTorrent_downloader.exe, couldn't remeber the whole name, and installed it under Owner. I just ran it once, and noticed it's not what I need, and I uninstall it.

But, after that, for about two weeks now, I noticed that every few minutes, there is an advertisement web page pop up. It really bothers me.

Please help me to remove it.

Thanks a lot,
Patricia

Hello, Admin,

I'm kind of confused by the document. The following is a part of copy with my questions,

--should I start from here and follow each document, or start from "Preparation" behind?
Self-help removal guides for many common infections can be found here: (including these):
How to Remove SpywareQuake
How-to Remove SpyFalcon
How-to remove Winfixer, Virtumonde, Msevents, Trojan.vundo (ATLDistrib object)
How-to remove SpyAxe, SpywareStrike, SpySheriff, Winhound, Smitfraud

--should I start from here, or finish the above document first?
Preparation: These initial steps will remove temporary files and make the malware scans that follow run faster.
