Blinkin Malware!

My Spybot keeps finding a number or problems that although I fix keep coming back. The most common offenders are:

AdRevolver
Advertising.com
Bluestreak
Doubleclick
Hitbox
Mediaplex
Tradedoubler
Webtrendslive


Can anybody help? I can run a HJT log if that helps?

    www.ccleaner.com, run it at startup to clean your tracking cookies (which aren't malware)

    this will help stop them getting there in the 1st place, IE, tools, internet options, privacy, advanced, and tick block third part cookies, and OK.
    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:
