Posted: I got one or the other or both.
Its a work computer but we dont really have an I.T. dept. as such. So when i got this thing i ran all the the spyware removers and adware removers and virus scanners i could find but im still getting some stupid pop ups from gambling sites and other annoying crap.
Can anyone recommend some freeware that might do the job?

Posted: 'Hijackthis' is a very good tool for removing tough malware.
Make sure you read the FAQs and use either it's online forum or log file online checker before you use its 'fix' option.
If you just delete everything it throws up, you'll trash your system because many of them will be genuine system processes.
