I have this spyware in my computer that causes me grief when i boot up. It causes my puter to crash many times till I scan with my spy-bot. I am good till I shut down and then Its a battle trying again to reboot. The Item I am trying to get rid of is adware newdotnet. If anyone has any solutions or good spyware used for this perticular problem it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Steve
