Also, meant to note. I have run Microsoft Anti-Spyware, Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, and Symantec AV to no avail.

After a reboot, each one does grab certain things (except Symantec) and they are fixed, but show up again almost immediately.

Any help you guys can give me is greatly appreciated. I'm going nuts trying to stop this Aurora pop-up.

Whoops, sorry about that. Closed IE before I could click reply. Basically, I used what you guys have said in the other threads about cleaning it. It seemed to have worked at first, but now it's back. Any help you guys can give me is greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
