The kids must of down loaded this crap and can someone help me get rid of it. I have this Movieland thing that pops up every 15 mins. and it will not let me get rid of it until I listen to this bimbo explain what she is selling.

It takes of the whole screen and I can't stop it until it says remind me later.

Can anyone help to get rid of it?

Not really a comp person... but here are some options. Do you have a pop-up blocker? I dont think this is it, but it could be. If not,

1ST: run norton. It could be a spyware or ad bot thing that needs to be erased.
2ND: check your add/remove programs thingie in windows. This may be a program that is stuck on your harddrive. Just remove it if it is.
Your third option that I can think of off the top of my head is to remove all your cookies from your hd.
Perhaps try to use a program such as Ad-Aware. There should be a free download. Basically this program removes all adware from your comp.

Thanks I tried it and lets see how it goes. It was full of my sons crap, he won't be impressed that a bunch of his stuff was deleted but so what.

Thanks Beaner.

Try looking in your C: Programs for the following

Altpay V.2
Media Pipe
Movieland

they should be folders, send me a PM letting me know what you find and what is in the folders.
