Make sure to run the full scan function.  It is recommended that you allow the software to run under default settings so that is can automatically detect, clean, quarantine and delete the offensive programs.
After scanning your computer, run SmitFraudFix.  Many of today’s most popular spyware and adware is delivered from the Zlob family of Trojan downloaders.  SmitFraudFix is a great way to kill all variants of these types of Trojans.
Once all programs are run and everything is fixed, you will need to try and prevent future infections from occurring on your computer.  Try to uninstall all programs that you think has malware, spyware or adware on it.  Some popular programs that have adware are:

Bearshare
Kazaa
Morpheus
Limewire

Also, make sure that all undesirable websites have been added to your Trusted Sites Zone.  The next time you install a program on your computer, remember to research the software first to determine whether the software is an adware infected application.  A good way to do this is by Google searching the software and using adware removal software. Lastly, you can update your security settings in your web browser so that only trusted sites are allowed to store cookies on your computer.
