When installing Windose XP, there should be an option to 'delete' the partitions... which should remove everything from the pute and let you start fresh. I'm not sure about the pop-ups and adware.. I do not get anything like that, and I'm the king of pornographic downloadation! Is that a word?

Let us know with your progress.

yea, I just have XP and use Explorer for browsing. I use the built in pop-up blocker Google supplies and that seems to work fine. Granted I get a few pop ups here and there, but nothing out of control.
