cs.valuead error-->HELP!

i've been getting a javascript error that says it can't reach the address "http://cs.valuead.+com/code?pid=12&gid=16&rid=909581142&dom=30&dow=3&hod= 2" though sometimes hod=23 or some other number. Given the .valuead, i have a feeling this is spyware/adware. The error gives the line and the character of the error and asks if i want to continue running scripts on the page, i have been clicking no.

i ran hijack this but its too long for this post so i will add a reply immediately after this message with the hijack this log.

thanks for the help!

my hijack this log is still too long, so here's part 1 (part 2 will be another reply):

well, after a combination of running search and destroy, ad-aware, spybuster and good old fashioned fixing-things-in-HJT-and-crossing-my-fingers-hoping-my comp-doesn't-die (its a patented technique), i think i have gotten rid of everything and boy was there a lot to get rid of. ad-aware alone found 160 things. hopefully, none of it comes back. thanks for the help GD.

your very welcome :thumbs:

HELP!!!!
I am pretty much computer illiterate & do not understand most of the information in this thread I have the same cs.valuead problem as described in the begining of this thread. I ran spy-bot, however that is about the limit of my current ability.

Additionally, something has changed my screen settings, and I cannot get them changed back - the bottom of the box where you are supposed to "Apply" / "Change" / "Update", whatever is below the tool bar and my mouse won't go there. This is after moving the top of the box to the top of the screen.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance.

PDX welcome to Windrivers

OK, let's start with what you do understand
did you read this link about tools to combat spyware?

Did you try downloading any?

Thank you for your prompt response.

Right now, I am struggling with my monitor - it is very difficult to read and/or use.

I respectfully ask that you continue to assist me after I get my monitor back to normal so that I can read the links you sent me.

Again, Thank You! for your response

Sounds like you need video drivers then?

That is what the person at Dell told me too. It sounds like you've been around this block a time or 2?

you could say that

What is your DELL model or service tag?
