OK,
Here's what I did. 
1. Turned off System Restore
2. Started Windows in Safe Mode
3. Ran Ad-Aware and deleted Bargain Buddy along with 16 other cookies
4. Rebooted in Normal Mode and went to a couple of web pages (Yahoo, Juno
ect)
5. Bargain buddy is back
Is there a way I can manually delete it? Ad Aware says it is a registry
key??
Thanks for the help.
Mike

Hi Mike. Have you installed any of the free programs like weatherbug or 
any screensaver programs or toolbars? A lot of the freebee stuff comes 
with programming built in that downloads the spyware garbage. you remove 
it and it just redownloads it when you startup IE the next time you go 
online. I do a good bit of computer repair here and some machines I get 
are loaded so bad a format and reinstall of windows is the only way out.. Ed

appears to be on my system. Ad-Aware caught it and I thought it was deleted,
but it keeps coming back. If I delete it through Ad-Aware and stay off the
internet, I can scan again, and it will still be gone. However, the minute I
open IE and go to any website, I get it back when I scan again. I tried
Spybot, and it doesn't see it. Any help would be appreciated, it's very
frustrating.
