Hi Brad,

Install some anti AdWare and SpyWare software. Lavasoft's AdAware does
pretty good job and it is free. You can get it at www.lavasoftusa.com ->
download...
Since it works like Antivirus program it needs to be updated to get latest
signatures. Also delete all the Cookies on your PC and all the Temporary
Internet Files.

Also to protect your PC, install and use Antivirus. Don't forget to update
it at least once a week. And to keep your PC healthy, update it regularly.
Visit www.windowsupdate.com

I hope this helps you out.
