these icons popped up on my desktop 30 minutes ago, and they are links for website hosting, bingo, casino online, printer cartridges....etc. for some reason they can't be deleted.... does anyone else have had encounters with this kind of annoying crap before? and how do you get rid of it? arggggggg...!!!

*update*
adaware didn't help....
 
<Nelson> HAHA! </Nelson>

Install the latest versions of Ad-Aware and Spybot and update them. Restart in safe mode and run them.
 
Sounds like the latest incarnation of new.net to me..

Restart in safe mode, attempt to remove with spybot and ad-aware....
also, use "hijack this"

For the new.net to be removed, I think you have to use the uninstall thing in windows...
From what I understand, new.net is playing hardball with spybot and/or adaware... one or the other is being sued for defamation of character for characterizing it as "undesireable spyware"

Last week, neither would remove it for me.
