adw ruledor.c and adw scanportal.a

I just got those two from some annoying pop ups today, and really want to avoid re-formatting my comp to get rid of them. I was able to delete all but one of the infected files from my comp, but I have a feeling it brought it back. anyone know how to get rid of them easier then re-formatting?

Got it fixed, I had to go into the registry and some other areas, but it worked.

Whenever I perform ‘free up space on your hard disk’, I always have 1280 KB stuck in ‘Webclient/publisher temporary file’.

I have tried everything I can think of to correct this. Does anyone else have any ideas?

Naveed,I have found that "spyware blaster" and "ad-aware" are both excellent products for getting rid of/preventing spyware.And both are free,so that helps too.
