Hi -- I'm getting partypoker, superslots, and a WinFixer popup whenever I visit certain sites (or sometimes random sites). The PP and SS ones are just the home page for those two sites with affiliate codes that I have to close down. The WinFixer is a popup that asks if I want to install WinFixer and even when I press no, it still opens up a web page. I've tried Ad-Aware, SpyBot, and Spyware Doctor. All found things, but haven't been able to get rid of this. Any suggestions?

Try running your antispyware programs in safe mode. This is sometimes necessary to get rid of apyware.
