Those blasted Kazaa pop-ups.

Even after I deleted my kazaa, and just about everything that has to do with it, i still get these horrible horrible "Alert" boxes that have advertisements.

I don't want to use a pop-up stopper because most of them cost money, and the ones that don't are horrible while trying to play a game.

Does anybody know how to take them off the computer for good?

If anybody can help me, I will praise them forever.

I use ad-aware (make sure you update the ref files often) and pop-up-stopper (which can easily be turned off when needed, and the new version is better about letting desired windows pop-up).

www.slyck.com should answer anymore questions you have about it. Sybot was mentioned and is a great program. If you need a pop-up blocker Pop-up Cop is a solid program, but unfortunately is not free like Spybot.
