excessive popup

this annoying site keeps popping up even when im not surfing. :eek:

http://www.ad-w-a-r-e.com/callback_ron.php?GUID={F194F621-0ED3-11D9-A431-00045AA1DA42}&country=US&type=

the domain cant even be found when i load it into my browser (DNS error)

how do i stop it from invading my computer?? it appears quite often. luckily my popup stopper is on, but it still keeps popping up every few minutes! :confused:

anyone know what this site is and how the popups can be stopped? i ran spybot and cleaned out a lot of spyware and checked for viruses but could find nothing.

Might be more than spyware, could be hijackers invaded your computer. I have no idea what that site is but I'm not foolish enough to click on the link to find out either. :D

To see if you have indeed been hijacked you should run Hijackthis Following the instructions for this program from the link below.
