Do you have an upto data antivirus/antispyware/firewall installed. Is it patched with https://www.windowsupdate.com

I'd try uninstalling surf-n-smile for a start - these sorts of linking programs are rife for possible nasties to be added to your system.

i have used the window securtiy updates and my pc is much better however the surf-smile thing is still how do i remove it tallyjohn?

Start; Settings; Control Panel. Add Remove software.

It's well worth loading Ad-Aware and running it regularly.

Make sure you have an anti-virus loaded and keep it up to date.
