    Please help. :(

    I have had these obnoxious pop-ups for about 3 months now, from WinSys Protect. They tell me I have spyware, blah blah blah, and when I close the window, it brings up a Windows-looking window, and when I close THAT one, it gives me yet another one, and then it redirects whatever browser window I have open. Then it says "If download does not automatically begin, click here". The only way I can stop it from redirecting is to hit Escape a bunch of times. I don't even use this computer anymore because it's so annoying. I get tons of other pop-ups, too, such as "please visit our sponsor", and just now something called "True". There are tons of them!

    I have Googled it and could find no decent information. I've run AVG and Spybot to no avail. I read all of the posted instructions, and did exactly what you guys said to do. I did not complete step 5 though, because I was assuming that I am supposed to do that later? If I need to do that now, let me know and I will. I don't have any toolbars installed on this computer, and no "crap" programs (other than AIM, lol). Everything else is a licensed program, such as Quark and Photoshop. I don't understand where this came from!

    Attached per your instructions is my Hijack This file. I renamed it, created the folder, the whole nine yards. Please, please help - this is driving me crazy!
