Ok. I don't know if someone could help. My problem is that whenever i run ad-aware, the process... umm, i think it services.exe ends with error code 0, and then I have about a minute to wait until my computer restarts. Also, I have been using the registry cleaner reg scrub XP and well it doesn't work. Oh, another problem is that I keep getting these annoying pop-ups and there is no way I can stop them, I just have to close them, but how can i know if it is spyware while being unable to scan this computer?
Oh, and for jfw, it doesn't change the pitch when finding capital letters. Suggestions?

I don't have any suggestions, but I also used Reg Scrub Xp, and it didn't work.

Ok. Pop ups are basically showing up for me without opening internet explorer. even if the pop-up blocker that comes with sp2 is set to block all pop-ups they still show up. That is why I can tell this is spyware. My antivirus found a couple of trojan horses, and some joke programs, but thats about it. The other files that it tries to delete reappear as soon as I restart... or if they are deleted the show up a few seconds laterr. It seems that of course a file, is causing these kind of... annoyances, but the problem is to identify it...
