Hmm, from reading that page it would suggest that the popups aren't being caused by trojan.adclicker - Adclicker just auto opens banner ads.. not actually creates popups.. I'd try doing www.bitdefender.com online scan

The problem is that I dont want my parents thinking I'm entering porn sites and besides each time they pop its like 10 windows at once.
Its fucking annoying.

which is the virus...

hmm, strange. you probably need to hack it out of the registry... a friend helped me get rid of a trojan that way before.. I'm not sure exactly how to do that myself though..

yea if u enter the name of the virus into google, i think it locates a site that belongs to systamec that takes u thru step by step how to remove it from the registry. Tricky shit tho, and u gotta be careful what u fuck with :S

i think it's your dad who secretly visits www.anal.com. he's the one to blame for the pop-ups
