    Nearly every 3 minutes my monitor is invaded by a page calling itself searchfind or Richfind Inc with a lists of companies, products etc
    I tried Spy Blaster, many erasing programs and nothing helped

    Help if you have any idea HOW, please!

    Welcome to Windowsbbs! :)

    First, download and install the current versions of both Spybot and Ad-aware. (links in signature) Open them and immediately check for updates. Run Spybot and fix all it finds that is prechecked. Run Ad-aware, performing a full scan. Delete all it finds. Download CWShredder.exe and HijackThis.exe from here. Save CWShredder to the desktop. Create a new folder named HJT and save HijackThis to it. Close ALL other windows and open CWShredder, then click fix. Reboot and open HijackThis. Click scan, then save log. Once it is saved it will open in notepad. Select all from the edit button, copy and paste the results here. Don't fix anything with it yet! Someone experienced with the logs will advise you.
