On Spy Sweeper, you first

- Sweep Now (top left corner, which you did)

- Quarantined (4th one down, this should show everything it found)

- Click Select All (located at bottom)

- Click Delete Selected (at bottom right)

This will eliminate them all.

Sounds like you have a trojan\virus.

Run a virus scan....until you know that you are virus free, you are pissing into the wind.

Guys i can get you a small progs like that for free, full versions which are 3-6 megs which is nothing. They come with reg key and those are full products. If anyone here is familiar with mIRC which is a program with tons of chatrooms which have people serving anything you possibly want. The mIRC servers are protected by a bill that BIll Clinton signed in 95 which prevent FBI and any other services from entering the channel and using any evidence to prosecute the people who server the programs. You can get full game full programs like newest Norton AntiVirus all those expenisve progs at bestbuy. Ofcouse im not for this but im not against it either. I know you guys are gamblers and dont mind spending 50 bucks on some program. But i think its better to sit home and download the full version and save that trip and money.

Don't flame.

"Dude".....the feds are very interesting in pirated software and it's distribution channels. The Directv hacks were pirated software which was loaded onto the cards.

Your (stolen) registration keys are grounds for the feds to have full access to whereever they are being distributed.

I been doing this for years. Im not gonna gonna live my live according to law and worry about every move i make. If your worried about those progs that u get and the FEDS that could be "Tracking you" your just paranoid. First off all they go after the big fish, people who distribiute the software, you think they would bother with a person like me?! COME ON man now im mad. Its like the whole Napster thing (Which is about RIAA not feds). Microsoft knows they will still make millions with people getting priated software of thiers. Trust me your safe, the gov aint gonna do sh*t unless you are up there. I'm done with this little discussion. I can make tons of pointsthi about s whole ordeal but why? I need sleep and this is silly.

Hf spending $40 on a prog that doesen't even clean out all your sypware and adaware because even if updated they dont have most of them in thier database. Thats why having 2-3 of those apps would be the best. But listen, if you know a little bit about comps you will know that u should disc deftag every week and keep your comp clean.

TIP: You have a lot of sh*t loaded on the bottom right of your screen where the time is? That is a major problem of your comp booting up slow. If you have that problem and you have some clue of what those programs are and if you know that you have no use for some of them... you do this


START ---> Run.... ---> type: msconfig ---> go to Startup ( its on the right. And then u have a while list of programs that load up when you boot up your comp. Most of them you don't need, trust me. Remmember don't get smart and unselect everything. Only programs with a brand name that u have no use for anymore that wont affect you daily use of your comp.


If you have questions... just ask. I don't know everything i will not pretend that i do, but i can help someone out who knows little less than me.



Gn fellas, you too TTinCo... i love u.

BetIt:


I had this same problem last month and you have a virus just as TTinCo stated. I spysweeped for about 2 hours but it would keep coming right back. Then I went and downloaded a free virus protection program and it found the problem and killed it.



No problems since

Very true---I was just pointing out that you shouldn't think that you are in some mysteryland where no one was looking.

Big brother is everywhere....he's just a little short on resources right now & can't go after everyone.
