Re: WindowsUpdate feature infacted by some adware system

Which browser (IE) ? - if so, what are the Security Zone settings ?
While AntiSpyware (Windows Defender) is good, it alone will not
detect & remove 100% of baddies. You still need a combination
of AdAware, Spybot, Defender and perhaps a comprehensive on
line scan, like Trend-Micros:

It's not adequate to just frequently remove Malware - better to
harden the PC's defenses to keep the stuff off in the 1st place.

Hi,
My system is infacted with some adware that shows stand-alone ads on my
desktops (Flash animations) and some web ads. they pop all the time and
have slowed down system.
It is bothering badly, Can you show me some way to get rid of this?


P.S. I have scaned system with Microsoft Anti-Spyware, it finds some
adware that has infacted WindowsUpdate auto download system and removes
it, but after re-start, adware is up again and is found again by
anti-spyware
