WildTangent won't go away! Spybot can't delete, nor Ad-Aware. I don't know what to do! I ran search, deleted everything it found. But it's still there, and whenever I start going on internet explorer, ads just pop-up. They go through my pop-up blocker thats been successful and has stopped every single pop-up since I downloaded it. And I looked up the description, and it said creates ads while web surfing and transfers information about you. Please help!

I updated it, still couldn't get rid of it. It said some problems couldn't be fixed, and asked if to Run Spybot at next system start up. I dont know how to get rid of this.
It says that its still in use(memory).

If you reboot your system it will run Spybot at startup before Windows loads, at that time you can remove it.
