    Reformating seems much easier and right after you do that get some anti-virus softwares. Best way in my opinion. Hope this helped

    get it about 3 weeks ago and from memory you have to manually delete some dlls in the windows\system32 directory after you have removed all the spywares using ad-aware and spybot in safe mode and with system restore turned off. search google for the dlls to delete as there are many variants.

    yea try a pop up blocker like a google but you need anti spyware programs to remove the spyware before your ads will stop
