I'm using IE, and everytime I open a new window,I automatically get a popup from this site called searchfeed.com. I don't recall exactly when this started but I can't seem to get rid if it. None of my spyware programs will get rid of it, and there isn't anything in my uninstall list to get rid of it. I also checked the site, and used their help, but still no luck. What can I do to get rid of this?

Install and run SpywareBlaster. Click on "Updates" and then choose "Check for updates". Next choose "Protection" and at the top you will see different tabs which are Internet Explorer, Restricted sites and Mozilla/Firefox. Choose one of them at a time and at the bottom click "Protect Against Checked Items" (make sure that all of the items are checked). Tick the boxes above the items. Make sure you do this for all of the top tabs. Mozilla/Firefox you only need to do if you have the user profiles on your computer. You may now exit out of SpywareBlaster.
