Thank you for all the services your site provides. It is a great resource for those who are into do it yourself computer repairs. Well here's my problems. You see I was downlowding music from Morpheus a P2P network. I downloaded it because I heard Kazaa was rigged with advertising. After doing a custom installation on Morpheus. I thought I was safe from spyware/adware. All went well for three weeks or so. Then all of the sudden the last couple days pornographic pop ups have launched themselves. This freaked my family out so I deleted Morpheus and now I am attempting to clean my computer of spyware/adware. I downloaded ad-aware and spybot..... spyware/adware cleaners. They seem to work fine and I have removed a good portion of the adware/spyware on my computer. My problem is that on the loaded software list on Spybot it says I have like 20 some porno dialers. I want to rid my computer of these but no matter what I try I can't seem to even find where I would delete them. We have high speed internet and with an always on connection I am afraid one of these dialers might pop up and start charging us obscene amounts of money. Any response will be greatly appreciated.
