I would like to know a couple of things.

1 - What is Spyware? What does it do, and what's the purpose of it?

2 - Would Spyware be the reason behind all the sudden, uncontrollable pop-ups that keep happening to me every time that I get online?

3 - If I used Ad-Aware to remove these thing, would one way of knowing where the ads came from be the fact that my cookies keep getting erased for the site that I visited? ( not TFP, but another site )

Thanks for any comments!

1. Spyware is usually software that is installed on a computer without the knowledge of the user, and sometimes with. It usually serves as a data collector for companies.

2. Yes spyware could be at the root of your popup problem. You should try deleting all your cookies then running adaware, then trying to access the internet.

3. I have no idea about this question, maybe someone else can help you with it.
