I found the same thing about windows security..I wonder if that doesn't have
to do with any of the latest Win updates.. Spybot maybe doesn't like what
that is showing...I read the info on what spybot had and it said not to
worry if your anitiV was up and running.

*sigh!
ok - spybot only found 2 things - in windows security center -
Adaware found about 10 tracking cookies.
that was it.
I ran cleanUP! 3.12 - then checked your method to see if anything remained
in those folders, and they were empty. (yes, sorry - I am on xp home). Even
those stubborn files! I manually deleted folders that were back on the
computer that I had read were related to the spyware. If they weren't, and
belonged to a program that someone put on my computer - tough!
I haven't tested IE out yet other than I opened it - and nothing has popped
up at me. I am holding my breath! hoping that those nasty files in the tmp
folder were the culprit!
I have to run out to the store - my daughter is leaving in a couple of days
for her first year of college - so, when we get back, I'll scream if it is
still producing pop ups! thank you very much!

Reboot normally - that should have got rid of 95% of it
If you have spyware left over post back and we'll work on it one at a time
