    Good morning.

    I don't know what I did but now I'm receiving aleatory ( I think ) pages.

    Without format my PC, what can I do to eliminate these sites not solicited?

    My OS is Windows Xp with SP2.

    Thank you for your help.

    Cheers.

    "Aleatory" is an English word, but to be honest with you, I have NEVER heard or read this word and I had to look online to see what it means. Did you find this in a Portuguese-English dictionary? I'd suggest you try again to describe what is happening. I would not use this word with English speakers if you want to be understood in the future. "Random" is a better choice.

    One guess I have is that despite your title saying "Spam", which refers to email, I think what is happening is that you is that your web browser is being redirected to random pages. This is called "browser hijacking". You'll need to scan your PC with an anti-virus and anti-spyware program. Spybot is good for anti-spyware. AVG and Avast are free anti-virus scanners. If I am right, you should not have said "Spam" for your title as that is not a spam problem.
