Scanning your system:

Go to these links in this order:

WINSOCK
XP's Winsocket is allot different then 98se's.
You used to be able to remove the TCP/IP / Stack in 98 and reboot and add it back in.
However XP, you cannot do this without a complete re-install of the OS.

If you have ANY P2P (Peer 2 Peer) Software, you need to run this and do as it says.

P2P software usually relies on each others connections and therefor modifies the
windows socket layer, therefor editing the original socket that was install and made
by Microsoft. This puts it BACK to "normal". This socket (when edited to different P2P
programs, and removed without redoing the socket) can cause you to lose Internet Connection.
This also messes with your LSP's (Layered Service Providers).

Popups:
You might have been infected with some sort of tracking cookie that is causing you to get Popups.
************************************************** *

Spyware:
You might have clicked YES to something while on a web site, or entered your login info.

- This is a DIRECT link to that exe file.
If it finds a suspicious program, remove it IF you DONT know what it is.
http://www.xblock.com/download/xclean_micro.exe

This one is the same thing, but you go a different way to this program.

- Also, I use a program called Spyware Blaster. This program ADDs "ActiveX Kill Bits" to the registry to
help keep some if not most of the popups and parasites from installing onto your computer.
You can surf just about anywhere and watch this program do it's job.

The you need a good anti-virus.
If you have AVG, get rid of it and use something else. Although AVG is free (so are many others) it has
it's problems and sometimes (more times then normal) reports false positives.

If you use Norton (Symantec) You need to get rid of that also. It isn't nothing but a resource hog and causes
problems that takes for ever to try and troubleshoot. Also, Norton has a removal tool in order for anyone to
remove it from their system (I say this is bad practice for ANYONE - the removal should have been included).
Norton Removal Tool here :http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

If you use McAfee, get rid of this as well. It is a resource hog.

All the above uses resources that you may or may not have available to your system and sometimes can cause
more sluggishness then someone else computer.

Anti-Virus
AVAST Anti Virus is FREE and you can also pay for it.

And finally, you need to clean your registry out from all the crap that you may have installed and then
uninstalled. To do this, you would need a registry cleaner. MS has a nice one, but would not suggest any
one to use it as it is directed towards the advanced users. However, there is one that I would recommend
to normal users. A program called Reg Seeker. Simple, lite and does not stay resident. Meaning, you load it
and tell it to do it's job, then close it. Simple fast and useful.
