Hi,
I am having a problem with pop ups from a site called as.adwave and also from a site called edge. Sometimes a trojan downloader virus (polall1r.cab) is attached to the pop ups (dealt with by PAV by sending it to a different location so it can't be run). I have run ad-aware and spybot and fixed what I can with those programs (incidently, spybot cannot permanently remove spyware associated with "IE Search" DSO Exploit, and VX2/f - it says it does but they just show back up on subsequent scans). My HTJ log is at the bottom of this email. I can see that some of the lines are relevant (those with "aspx?" in them, which is always included in the as.adwave pop up URLs, but if I just fix those, they come back on subsequent HTJ scans. I also know that one of your users was helped with this very problem in this thread (http://forums.techguy.org/archive/index.php/t-254512.html), but my log has enough differences from his that I wasn't able to apply the procedure to my computer.
Any help will be appreciated.
Best,
