I am receiving extra internet explorer windows from the
above subject. They just keep popping up and mutiplying.
I have a firewall, anti-virus and spyware installed. I
have looked at the properties and tried removing objects
from the registry all without success. How do i rid
myself of this menace. Many thanks for any help
received.Mike.

Mike,
I know how you feel, I too suffered these ads to the extent of insanity. I appear to have found a simple solution in the respect of deleting SWIN32.DLL found in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32.
Suggest you make a back up first before doing it just in case.
I tried this yesterday and had a whole night of surfing without this irritating feature.
If it does not work you can obviously replace the file from the backup.

Hope this helps.. Regards....Terry
