When I have logged in over here there is a pop up window ad about how my computer has registry errors and download some "cleaner" to fix it.

I just had some virus stuff taken off my work computer. Is this a real ad on PSC or is my virus still lurking? I've never seen a pop up ad over here before, hence my skepticism that Spy Bot did the trick. (Thanks big IT department..... hahaha )

Weird...not there shouldn't be any of those ads on here. I think they are very annoying!

Thank you all, I've sent another request to IT department. I keep getting a Windows error message now saying my Outlook has an error and needs to close. I do not use Outlook and my outlook is disabled as we are using a web-based mail system now.

Guess there is something still lurking in the background trying to use my Outlook.

Grrr...
