    I have a couple ideas.

    1. If you're going to look at porn, do it the right way and you won't get infected. =)

    2. Don't let your friends watch porn on YOUR computer. =)

    3. Reboot in safe mode, scan with Anti Virus software.

    4. Then scan with Spybot SD and Ad-aware.

    5. Reboot in normal mode and scan again.

    6. Finally, do an online virus scan.

    Works for me. Already mentioned a couple free spyware scanners.

    Typing in capital letters does not increase my non-existant sympathy for you.
