ok thanks for that info.
What's the "real time scanner" of an anti virus? (I have norton and I think an AOL version + other spywares running automatically).

I've managed to follow the instructions well, but encountered the following problems:

1) Un-installing program section: couldn't locate "mywebsearch" and "adwarealert" in the add/remove programs section. The following applications were not familiar to me though: BroadJump Client Foundation, Learn2 player (uninstall only), RAW file converter LE, TopStyle Lite (version 3.0)

2) - Delete files/folders: the only one I was able to find and delete is the "funk size peak software" one. The others were not there (mywebsearch, flawlink, Anti-v-1, HSNXFPZ.exe, AdwareAlert, Boregr~1)

3- In the "Advanced" tab of the "view hidden tasks" the only listing I could see in there with digits and numbers was a listing called ABF9D3CE918A4DOA (without the "job" after the digits/numbers) so in doubt, I haven't deleted it.

The Ewido scan was fine, and I got the following report from it (I'll post the others later, after finding out what I should do with the antivirus):

Upon restarting my computer in normal mode, I do not get the error windows I was encountering earlier (which is good!)
