I used to use Ad-Aware from Lavasoft, but I've recently switched over to Spybot - Search & Destroy. It's an excellent program - can't recommend it highly enough!

I used both adaware and spybot but my the problem is still there, maybe my browser got hijacked, is there anyway i can fix that using spybot?

Try going into Add/Remove programs and uninstalling this IncrediFind crap.
BHO stands for Browser Hijacking Object to you and me(or Browser 'Helper' Object to the advertising companies) :-/
