SpyHunter is a decent program. I had to pay for this ting, so I'll milk it for all it's worth, by giving it to everybody.

Gimme an email address and I'll send you the email/password required.

Obviously a browser that did nothing but display text and pictures would be secure because nothing it encountered could tell it to do anything to your computer except display stuff on your screen. At least it would need help to trash your system. I suppose it could put a big image on the screen that says "C:\Command.Com has been corrupted. To continue, delete it and then press your reset button." But it couldn't do anything to you by itself.

I didn't really have problems, but I don't want that crap on my computer. It found a lot of stuff, thanks.

This really sucks.

Anybody have cwshredder.exe or hijackthis.exe?

I used to get these from www.merijn.org and www.spywareinfo.com, but both seem to be unreachable right now. I suspect under they're under attack (I'm pretty sure the problem is not on my side).

SpyBot Seach&Destroy 1.2.

Download, update it, and you'll be happy.

I have it. And AdAware. Latest versions available. There are things they both don't fix, coolwebsearch being a notable example. Google: http://www.google.com/search?q=coolwebsearch

You may be right - I did an update of SpyBot, and it's catching something it didn't catch before.

HijackThis is supposed to be pretty good, but there's a DDOS attack against the more popular sites that host it right now.

Without any updates, Spybot comes with just enough to fix DNS redirection, so you can get the other updates.

Of coures, I did mention updating Spybot before using it on the first page of this thread *shrugs*

HijackThis! is very effective, especially in fixing broken host files, dead menus (you unistalled mysearchbar but the checkbox is still there for it)

Oh, but for HijackThis! you actually have to know what you're doing =/. It doens't have any "automatic fix" options

If you need a copy, AIM me at Strickler22OnMac
