Ok, I have some spyware >_<. It brings up unwanted pop-ups, and sets my homepage to "res://ezfah.dll/index.html#96676".
I've ran Spybot S&D, Ad-aware, did a full scan with norton, deleted cookies, deleted all temp files, and rebooted. It refuses to go away. (Edit: And full registry scan and clean)
Any suggestions?

Meh, it won't be that bad, worse comes to worse I pull a system restore. Unfortunately the latest one I had last night was at 7:30, and I can't remember when I got everything settled. I installed a new harddrive last night. In fact, I think I'll do that right now. No sense in waiting, I only have to do an extra 15 minutes of work if I restore, compared to what I'd have to do to get rid of this shit.
Edit: Problem solved. Even more painless than expected because since I didn't have the harddrive installed at that time, it kept all the old files in the other harddrive, but fixed the spyware on my main harddrive.
Thank god for system restore.
