OMGosh.....it worked.  

Thanks sooooooooo much!  

So, you're using Vista?  That has been my one hold up on buying a new computer....no one can tell me if they are down-compatable with XP.  So, I was going to try to wait for Windows 7.

How do you like Vista?

Hopefullly now, you've just bought me some time with this old laptop.

Thanks again, Rocker

Sometimes its hard to get some programs complety off your system...macfee is another resource hog...and to norton is a virus itself...and never install toolbars,they will slow you down too...i use AVG for my virus protection ...i used to use zone alarm as my firewall but i tweaked my vista ifrewall and it works great

Yeah....I am hating it.  I keep catching it trying to add stuff to my computer....when I deleted the ask redirector it added, my troubles started.

Ok...I'm downloading it now.  And uninstalling the one I had.  Thanks so much...gosh, I hope this helps.

When AV-Test.org presented Spy Sweeper with 20 active adware and spyware samples, the program detected 85 percent of their files and registry entries, though it overlooked the Maran and Nilage password stealers and the Virtumonde.A. Trojan horse. When tested on how well it detected inactive adware and spyware (which involves recognizing malware files solely from their signatures), however, the program spotted only 26 percent of adware, just over 14 percent of password-stealing spyware, and less than 2 percent of banking keyloggers. Another disappointment: It detected just four of the nine inactive rootkits planted on the test machine. The program did poorly at disinfection, too, cleaning up only 25 percent of adware files and Registry entries and 15 percent of spyware files and Registry entries.
