have you looked in the startup folder  on your computer.  if you go to start 
menu, all programs, then start up then if it is listed there then use the 
application key or  shift f12 then to delete .  you also can go to the run 
keys in the registry and check if it is there and delete it from there.  if 
you go to run then type in regedit then press enter down arrow to hkey 
current user then right  arrow then down arrow to software then right arrow 
then down to Microsoft then right arrow  then down arrow to windows then 
right arrow then down one time to current version then right arrow then down 
arrow to run then tab and check if this item is there and if it is then 
press delete on the key board.  You also need to check under hkey local 
machine right arrow then down arrow to software then right arrow then down 
arrow to Microsoft then right arrow then down arrow to windows then right 
arrow then down arrow one time to current version then right arrow and then 
go down to run then tab and check if this item there and delete  it.

Hi all --
over the past few days something has appeared on my system that brings up
unwanted windows with advertising and other messages. It shows up in the
task manager and I am able to kill it there, but it doesn't appear in
add/remove programs so I don't know how to remove it. I ran a virus scan and
Norton doesn't identify it as malware.
Does anyone know how I can get rid of this thing?
Next time I reboot I am concerned it will be there again.
Thanks.
