i keep getting these pop ups coming up, saying.

this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.

it closes ya web pages and u can't get online.

in the details bit it bangs on about an invalid page fault.

i'm online at the moment, but i can't get on some sites and i guarantee it plays up again tomorrow.

anyone know how to get rid of these fuckers.

Dear Abby

I also have a recently acquired minor problem - yesterday the system decided that the pc shouldn't allow more thatn one browser open at any one time. What should I do?

Your PC has spyware - your fucked matey - try downloading addware and other upto date spyware search and destroy programmes. It still might sort out your problem. BUT these virus's are always changing and theres millions of them - so security software can't keep up with them. If all else fails you may have to re-install windows. That'll teach you for downloading those Hatton Porns Hitman.

BACK UP ALL YOUR IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS ETC YOU COULD LOSE THEM

Aha but I only get onto site named http://www.aminaked.com therefore said porn problem is minimal

Actually, the stupid thing just fixed itself not long after posting the problem. Adaware catches a few spyware things and I've run about 100 worm checking tools from this site and nary a one was picked up. It's rooted

Spyware Doctor
Spybot
AVG anti-virus
Adaware.

are all free to downlaod and very usefull for keeping you PC reasonably clean.

Also try turning off System Restore and restarting your PC in Safe Mode and running your anti-virus, Spy/Adware programs this can help remove even more 'crap'.
