everytime i open up my google, a popup ad comes up and i know it's not part of google because they never have those kinds of ads. anyway, i've used ad-aware 6 and spy sweeper and everything to try and get rid of it, but everytime i "quarantine", i open up google, or any site for that matter and there's the popup ad again! it's like..there's no end!

Hmmmm, get rid of everything like but Ad Aware 6 and spybot. Download Spywareblaster, install and run once a week. I got it coming to LW, and I got K's of popups every minute. I've got none now. Try your browser popup blocker settings.
