Yes....

I bet you have windows messenger plus installed.
Go into remove un install programmes in the control panel.
Find windows live messenger and click on un install.
They will appear 3 options. Click remove sponsor.
This will un install and you will get no pop ups!!!!

its worked on all my lap tops!!!!

Would recommend using one of those Anti Spyware packages you have and do a scan in Safemode without the Internet Connected. Then a scan without the Internet Connected again. This usually kills them for me when I'm fixing other peoples machines.

Or you could go through your Programs list and Remove any dodgy named programs that appear in there.

Concuring. I've had to do this on a desktop machine before which suffered from the CiD pop ups. Also had to move onto the next version of IE which completely stopped them, after removing Messenger plus though.

If there's one posters I think does most damage to this board, it's without a doubt you, perhaps one day you'll grow up, but I doubt it.

Mut, if you don't use them, uninstall them, at the very worst you'll end up doing a system restore to before you started uninstalling stuff.

I suggested malwarebytes last time so it probably didn't work. Cured my pop ups. Had a back door trojan.
