I went to a site that said it had the patch, but instead it loaded something onto my computer that is causing pop-ups.  It makes my web browser really slow, how do I get rid of this.  I have also already run Ad-aware and cleaned up a lot.

	Look at your options/preferences.  It is possible that some spyware or 
other malware changed the settings to allow pop ups.  If that isn't the 
case, try spybot, another freeware that catches a few things that 
Adaware misses.  You might also have a virus that's playing games with you.
