hi, this is getting extremely annoying. I am attacked by Yahoo SBC popups whenever i open my inbox. All popups read spyware protection of some sort. "Your computer has been exposed to parasites known as spyware." Another..."Warning: Spyware viruses are using your computer for... replication. You might want to keep them off: Spyware Removal". Another......"Your computer is infected with Spyware and Adware" I do not know what else to do. I have ran adware and spybot without any success. How do i get this out of my browser? (Win XP. Yahoo DSL ) thanks

Misti26, that 2nd link of yours is not the official link to spybot s&d and will actually redirect you to PAL Solutions homepage where they try to sell you their own spyware scanner.

Use this link instead: www.spybot.info

IMO Neo might be reporting what normal advertising that happens to be trying to sell spyware protection programs and are using shady "you are/might be infected" spiels.
