Well i have just had caught adware on my computer by clicking spell check on the right corner of the "Post New Thread," box. When you click spell check it will ask you to install ieSpell as i was dumb enough to click it, but the instance i clicked it it gave me a toolbar that gave me adds named,"mirar" Can someone tell me how to get this toolbar/ad off my computer?

If have been using IESpell for about a year now (as do quite a few members here) and I have never seen any adware from this component. I installed it on a "virgin machine" a few minutes ago and I don't get any popups.

I could be wrong, but IMO, the sequence of events you describe (the instance I clicked it...) sounds like you already had the "mirar" thingy before you chose spell-check.

Try these:
Spybot Search and Destroy: http://www.safer-networking.org/
Adaware: http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/
Windows Defender: http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx

And for future: stop using Internet Explorer, get Firefox or Opera

Like the guys said, you didn't get it here but we'll help you get rid of it anyway. Please let us know if you have any trouble removing it -- Ad-Aware and Spybot can deal with almost anything, but if they can't handle it we can give you some more help.
