These days using just one anti spyware product may not be enough. At my office we use Spybot, SpywareBlaster, Windows Defender, and for personal use I also recommend AdAware.
Hi all ....
Tried dl'ing the suggested ware programs and running them (updated). Did rid the puter of many ugly spyware but still have an embedded prog that cotinues to send a yellow triangle with a exclaimation mark giving a message to dl their antivirus program. I have already scanned the puter with AVG antivirus and no infected progs. I tried to delete IE from Program files but the critter reinstalls IE as soon as I delete it. Any other suggestions on how to whack this little critter?
Thank for your suggestions so far.

In the Hi-Jack instructions they refer to a "forum" Do they mean the Dell forum or is there a Hi-Jack "forum"?
Thanks
