Hey,

First I would like to apologize if this issue has already been addressed on another thread. i am at work and I am desperate for HELP because I need to have fast access to my computer and my IT guy has not been able to help thus far.

Basically what happens is I get a million popups if I do not go into my advanced privacy settings on my tools and change it to not accept cookies unless I appove it. That is only a temp fix though. What happens is if I open a new window it does whatever it wants. I get crazy pop ups. Also what will happen is after some time (not sure how long) The settings will change back on their own to accept all cookies and then it goes bezerek.

The stuff I get runs the gamant, the last few were for everything from find your true love to download win antivirus for 2007 for free (that one is the worst)

I have ran the Symantec virus program I have on the system and it only quarantined two things. I also have pop up blocker that came with the system turned on and have done just about all I can think of to do. Also I checked for updates on Microsoft's website and it added windows malicious software removal tool, cumulative security update for IE for WIN XP, and security update for IE 7 WIN XP.

 I am not the worlds most computer literate person so it DOESNT mean I have done all possible I could do. Anything you GUYS could suggest would be great. I just ask you one favor, write it like I am a moroon and have no clue. Seriously. I am more a visual learner then a reading learner. I know my limitations at least right ? LOL

Anything you guys can help would I appreciate it very much. Thanks for looking out for those who arent as well , how do i put it without offending ? Computer savy as yourselves !
