This is pretty much a call for help. Lately on my computer, I've had numerous pop-ups start happening. What i mean by numerous is about 10 pop-ups every 5 seconds. I've had pop-ups before, but not like this. My coputer did have a virus, but I reformatted and reinstalled everything. However, the problem is that now my little brother is on my computer a lot because I either have to work or play football, so I'm not here to see what he does. I don't use kazaa or any kind of downloading program, but what my brother does is a mystery to me. The only thing I have is ad aware 6.0, and every time i scan it says there's about 300 new objects found.
supposedly they get erased, but i guess they keep coming back. I still need this computer for school, so I'm wondering if any of you guys know any programs to help get rid of these pesky trojans and adware. they have seriously gone from a nuisance to a problem. I saw a couple of other threads on this here before, and i tried d/l a couple of other programs like spy bot and another one, but to no avail. seeing as how I am very busy a lot with the afore mentioned things, if anybody knows programs that can help with this problem of mine, i would be thankfull.
