Dude I am sorry if you have tracking cookies and spam. Truly sorry. I use Firefox for my internet explorer which blocks a lot of spammers, malware and the kind. So if you are using windows explorer I would consider getting firefox.
I also have Outpost Firewall Pro(one of the best out there) that will block alot of malicious contents from even getting to your computer. YOu can get the free version here:
Download Outpost Firewall Free 1.0 - filehippo.com
That will last you about 30 days trial. You will love it. It is very customizable with a lot of options.
Get avg antivirus program from
Free Software Downloads and Software Reviews - Download.com or
AVG Free Advisor - Free antivirus and anti-spyware downloads
Make sure you update constantly. Atleast once every 4 or 5 days.
Also I think that the Outpost firewall has a built in spyware removal as well.
Also on
filehippo.com - Download Free Software you have other very incredible spyware removal programs such as spybot, ad-ware and more. I even think you can get spyware terminator from there as well. All are free and no trial errors and as good as any paid program. Just make sure you keep them up to date with constantly downloads.
Do you have your XP SP2 firewall enabled? If not enable it.
And for anyone that has spyware and tracking cookies from those sites then I apologize for that. Ihave never had a problem since I am extra careful and never surf the web with out a firewall, spyware detection or antivirus in real time and more.
