ok I've run every scan you guys have ever recommended. I can't make the pop ups stop on this one PC (Compaq) I'm working on. I've used Ewido, Adaware, spybot, mcAfee etc. the computer seems clean, then I open internet explorer and the pop ups start. I have the pop up blocker set on IE, I also have one through my ISP, Mcafee security center. I know the PC had Look2me but i'm not sure I cleaned it completely.
thx for the help. what other info do you need?

this pc keeps getting a message that the blackworm virus has infected it, but I can't seem to find it with any virus scan....?
