Thank you so much!
I tried both Adaware and Spybot, and things are still not quite right.
Ads are popping up.
some sort of .dll error when I start up - but it still lets me startup
shortcuts for new programs appearing on my desktop when I restart
However, the IEHost error is gone!
I tried the hijack this instructions but I couldn't get to the spyware site.
So, who are the "professionals" that you are talking about?
I am afraid for how much they are going to cost?
