| _______________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 10:11am - the_reverend ""] I got your aim about this. ok, which spyware things did you install? after scanning with the spyware tools, did you actually "clean" with them? spy bot s&d and adaware, you need to scan and then click the items to remove. |
| ____________________________________________ [Sep 15,2004 2:57am - Todd(bombshelter) ""] I have tried ,Ad-aware,webroot spysweeper,and Mcafee anti spyware,and none of them seem to have gotten rid of the problem |
| ____________________________________________________ [Sep 15,2004 7:39am - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] did you download all the updates for those programs? those adware and virus scanners never pick up everything. try a google search of whatever specific symtoms its giving. I was fixing up someone's computer before that had a browser hijack like that and adaware and spybot didn't pick it up. I did a google search for whatever that search page that popped up was saying. Then I found some weird scanner that I've never heard of before and it seemed to fix the problem. |
