spam advertisement imbeded in my computer

[gary driedger]

Some how an advertser imbeded a "Casino" ad on my
computer. Everytime I boot up it asks me if I want to go
to a gambleing website. How do I rid my computer of the
annoying ad?

Gary;
You probably have spyware installed.
Run an updated virus scan.
Run Disk Cleanup checking all boxes except "Compress old files"
Check this link:

Run Ad-Aware (free version) or Spybot to check for spyware:

Or
