Question about 'Stop Pop-Up Spam Messages'

I have a question about Stop
Pop-Up Spam Messages:
How do I stop Savenow ads. They are from Whenu.com and are not related to the web
site I am viewing.
I tried Search and Destroy.POW does not detect them.
I disabled messenger. I deleted keys in registry.
Short of firewall what can I do to stop them?

It has been a while since that thing snuck onto my PC
But as I recall it uninstalls easily from add/remove programs
Regards, Adam Bradley
BTW has anyone else noticed the server being about as fast as frozen molasses?
It took 20 minutes to load the reply page

We will see it seems to have improved dramatically (at least for the moment)
I actually didn’t notice the slowdown very much a few months ago
All the kazaa users drained our LAN to the point that I was missing the 28-34K we
get at my house
I has starting to suspect it was my computer but it apparently wasn’t
Regards, Adam Bradley

To Adam B. That was the first thing I did.I fianlly did a search and found the file.
It would not delete so I went to the folder and there was an uninstall file. It worked
for now.
