[Ham-Computers] Question about Adaware program

[JV]

        I think Adaware only finds adware but does not prevent them. I have
MS and Yahoo "no pop ups" installed and still received the ding dang things.
They are a pain in the rear end. My son says that most of these pop ups are
found in the fine print of installed programs. Look out for "Gain Ware".

Does anybody who monitors the reflector here know why the above program wont
take all the pop ups that this program finds on the system.
 
A buddy of mine who was looking at several adult sites told me his computer
was having all these pop ups and I knew exactly what I thought would cure
it, and it has but not all the way.
 
I have run the program about 6 times in the last 3 days and it keeps finding
these ads.
I delete them and run the program again and it finds more.
 
Any ideas on what else I can possibily do.
