I've used Spybot, Bazooka, and now Ad-aware but I still have it on my PC. I think it's a form of adware and it changes my homepage every time I open a new browser page. Is there anyway to get rid o it? Do the creaters have an uninstall program or something?

Did you check for updates on Spybot and Ad-Aware?
Make sure you update to get newest versions of theese to insure you to get rid of he spy-ware.
Go to your control panel and to add/remove programs and see if anything as been downloaded today ..... (things can download without you knowing)... if there is something that has downloaded today (like a toolbar.. time sync.. etc.).. you can remove from there.
Hope this helps!!!
I just had two weeks of hell trying to get rid of all my spy-ware... but it seems to be okay now.
Take Care,

Almost forgot.. make sure you go to "internet properties" to change your homepage back to what you want it to be.
