Well, This is what i get when I share a computer with my little sister. Its editing the HTML code when the page loads, so every one and a while you'll come across a link in the middle of the forum like this, when you say car, love, sex, trip, or anything like that. Its annoying. Ive ran spybot and ad-aware, and they say they cant delete the adware thats causing it, its called new.com or something along those lines. Has anyone else ever delt with this?

Do a search on google for it. Try to find the remove instructions.

I would go to run on your start menu.

type regedit

do a search for new.com and delete all traces of it.

**be very careful, you can serioulsy fuXor up your computer if you aren't careful.....

Good luck.... 8)
