Older versions of Kazaa Lite can still spawn popups because the IE control embedded in it can run Javascript to do it. Two options:

1. Upgrade to the latest Kazaa Lite
2. On that first tab, press Refresh and then instantly Stop. That'll abort any JS from loading.

i use adsgone.

kazaa + klite = deadly for music and music videos

Check the June 1st news on this site. It's people using the MS Messaging system to spam you. There is a fix here.

Not sure but Pest Patrol might help. http://www.pestpatrol.com/ It helps find and get rid of ad software, cookies, trojans and more.

I also like it because it has a little program for finding keyloggers. All it does is tell you every program that is recording your keystrokes. lol It always warns me about my mouse software but as a site owner I would rather it go over board then miss something.

I use Ad-Aware. It's free and it works well.

It's already been mentioned, but Ad-aware would do the trick :D

theirs something in some of the OS's that you can remove too, in the administrative tools, go to where it says messenger and stop that process

I also use AdAware, but it does not remove all little pop ups in your browser. I have run into this problem and the only solution is a pop up blocker. I use an older freeware version from http://www.panicware.com which doesn't allow the popups to actually pop up. Works well.
