    Browser Hijack

    There's two issues here:

    #1. Somehow, someone has managed to hijack my browser functionality. I can click on any link and they pop-up some brain dead advertisement. This is independent of the link I click on.

    How do I eliminate that hi-jack?

    #2. There's commercial interests at heart here. How do I find out who the companies are that are hoping for business, and let them know that they'll never get another dime of my money?

    Seems simple enough.

    Dexahol,

    To answer your #1 question:

    I had 2 PCs that were badly infested with hijackers and popups. Spyware Doctor from pctools.com was the only one that could fix them. All others failed.

    Costs $30 for 1 license, $100 for 5. Get version 3.5 which is the latest.

    I am not associated with pctools in any form. Just giving my advice.
