Gator had infiltrated my computer to the point that it was driving me batty. I transcribe in Word Perfect 5.1 and every time a popup comes up it knocks me out of the Word Perfect 5.1 screen and I have to stop transcribing and bring back the WP 5.1 screen. This was happening approximately every 3 minutes, sometimes so frequently that it was happening 10 times in one report I was transcribing. I ran Spybot and I now have NO popups. It found 106 files, most of them Gator. Spybot saved my sanity (and my paycheck!) :)

Amen! I also use Norton anti-virus, Pop-Up Stopper, and ZoneAlarm. I haven't yet found software that will track spammers and beat them with a tire iron, but I'm working on it.
