Hi

How do i remove this porno ad from my computer.

[Dr.MAD]

You, comrade, are infected with Spyware...
I suggest you download either Spybot S&D (http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10194058.html?tag=lst-0-1) or Ad-aware (http://download.com.com/3000-2094-10045910.html?legacy=cnet). it will probably remove it. If it doesn't, let us know (because it would mean you could have a browser hijacker)

like spy said get spybot search and destroy and update it. should work. hijack this is a good hijacker remover

[Lidor_Ba]

I didnt get this specific spyware but if its not identified by ad-aware it will be by spybot.
The best thing is to have them both. this way you will be 100% spyware free.

try looking in C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations or C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files and see if you can uninstall it from there or add/remove programs

got a post on very similar problems to yours, also try using a trojan remover (if you don't have av software).

You got a browser hijacker.
Download HijackThis (http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10227352.html)
Scan your machine, and paste the log here. We'll see what has to be killed.
