WARNING: Do not download "HotBar".
The emoticons are very cute but when you down load them, a whole tool bar comes with it and there are thousands of pop-ups embedded in the bar for their advertisers. The pop-up blocker will block everything else...even spell check on DU..but they have enough in the tool bar itself to keep you doing nothing but Xing them out. Couldn't even read through one thread without one popping up.

1. Spybot and AdAware will wipe that crap out for you.

If you haven't done so already PLEASE download and install both of those free programs and run them. You really DO NOT want that garbage on your system. :)

A web search for each of those names will direct you straight to their respective websites.
