    Hi,

    im hoping someone can help me. Every time i enter a website, a second popup window appears from "Enhancemysearch.com" It is incredibly annoying. I have run Nortons, Spybot-search and destroy, and ad-aware, and none of them seem to be able to remove this problem. Does anyone out there know a solution to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Majikman,

    It is always a good idea to start HERE:
    READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal

    Please note the steps that you are able to complete and the ones that give you problems. Note that you need to be in Safe Mode with System Restore OFF (if you have it - you didn't give OS) and have the Viewing of Hidden Files ENABLED as per the instructions in the link. Make sure to do the Online Scans.

    Post back and let us know how you fared.

    Best luck :)
