I recommend Adaware\n\nhttp://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10045910.html?part=dl-ad-aware&subj=dl&tag=top5\n\nI find it to be very effective, and is good at finding and removing the majority of spyware on your computer.\n\nOh, and it's free free free - my favourite kind of price

Ok here's what you do:\n\n1)  Download SpyBot Search & Destroy, AdAware, and Spy Sweeper (search on the net, first 2 are free and you can get the third as a trial version)\n2)  Download a personal firewall like ZoneAlarm or Kerio if you don't already have one installed.  Run it.\n3)  Run scans with all 3 of the programs I mentioned first.  This will clear your computer of all the spyware and adware you might have.  \n\nThe firewall will protect you from a good deal of malicious things on the net, but not all.  To ensure your computer stays clean, keep updated versions of SpyBot and AdAware and scan about once a week.  \n\nThis should fix your problems.  Spy Sweeper is a one-time thing, as the trial expires after 30 days, but it can detect a couple of things that SpyBot and AdAware can't.

Forget about the yahoo spyware.  For spyware solutions, Spybot Search & Destroy is great.  If you are willing to try Microsoft's beta, consider MS Defender.  Both are currently free.\n\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d&DisplayLang=en\n\nDon't forget to always update the spyware definitions before scanning.\n\nThe best way to prevent spyware is to not go to suspicious websites, open unknown attachments, click on links from spam, etc.  Also, clear your cookies and run your anti-spyware program from time to time.

Yahoo provides an anti spyware tool and pop up blocker through their toolbar.  \n\nA good free anti virus is AVG which can be found here http://www.grisoft.com/doc/1

Get a popup blocker from Google or Yahoo. Then run a spyware program such as Spybot or AdAware. That should clean up your system or at least tell you what is affecting it so you can manually search and remove the pesky things.
