Help Me, Blogfans, You're My Only Hope!

Okay, I would've written something vastly entertaining this morning, but my computer has been invaded by a pop-up monster that I can't get rid of. Pop-up blockers are on, but this is a fucking monster that's been installed in my control panel.

The proof?

Desktop

See that fucker? "Run Advertised Programs"? I know that's the culprit. I can't uninstall it or delete it. What the fuck?

So. I turn to you, my dear internet friends who might hopefully be smarter than me. How the fuck do I get this off my computer?

Oh, and before you start accusing me of looking at porn on my work computer - while this has certainly been known to happen in the past, it hasn't happened any time recently at all that would account for this. But really, does it matter? I suppose this kind of problem is electronic karma for e-sins past, but I still want it to go away.

You probably need your IT folks to help (install the right programs and delete the right files). I had one that kept redirecting me to horse porn. Not the first thing what I want to see in the morning...or ever.

Fondest regards,

I have no idea how you get rid of it - but I'd be ticked off! ((hugs))

Well, it turns out that the tech guys did have to get involved. And after nearly a full day of him working remotely on my computer (an unsettling experience, to say the least), it's still not fixed. Grrr.
