| My win2k pro system is infected. Tried running adaware, spybot
| search&destroy and spyware blaster -- found a bunch of stuff: result
| screwed up seti@home (encounters an error trying to upload results), and
| temporary relief, only to be followed a few days later by reinfection.
| Then tried free download of spy sweeper. No help there. They all find

| Currently, I'm being plagued by pills.com popups whenever I use IE.
| Ring any bells? Anybody know what this is, or how to kill it?

| Thanks in advance for any help you can provide....
