pak file/pop up probs Options

[futureman]

PART 1
i have recently gotten the MOHAA reinstalled onto my computer after having much, much difficulty with my vid card.

so, got the vid card fix, did the reinstall of MOHAA from the original CD, got the newest reinstall of missionary, but i cant get into the game. for some reason, the missionary program always says pak file failed and then i am stuck having to restart. i have tried 4 times in the last hour.

do i need some sort of patch? has my CD been updated making my MOHAA version outdated?
i cant figure out why this is happening because there is nothing but a brand new, stripped down MOHAA install.

any suggestions would help.


PART 2
since getting numerous fixes on my computer, i have now been subjected to a constant onslaught of pop ups.
i realize i have probably downloaded spyware but i dont know how to rid myself of these things.
do any of you recommend a free pop up stopper or do i need to go ahead and purchase something?

i believe druid had me on the right track before, but i have since erased a lot on my computer, so i am starting new.

thanks a lot.

I've been having problems with pop ups for a while, and that has been a problem with Miss since bart got rid of the tool bar. However, since I downloaded the newest miss form IW, every time I start miss it loads then sends me back to the miss console. This will take me a couple of days to figure out, i'm sure, but I'm not giving up hope. Hell, we've all been through too much with miss to give up hope! lol
