Yesterday I posted a message regarding a search engine
that pops up occasionally and got some suggestions about
Spy Bot.
I downloaded it, and was amazed what was on my
computer...THANKS!!!
However, the problem remains...search-aid, STILL appears
occasionally........

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your feedback!

Sounds like spyware or a home page hijacker.

Run these tools weekly: (make sure to update them weekly as well)

ad-aware -- http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

New exploits come out on a daily basis anymore. It takes a while for these
programs, such as SpyBot/Ad-Aware to catch up with them.
