Title: The about:blank virus Post by: RaptorsGM on February 05, 2005, 11:09:59 PM I have it again :(
Last time it took me like 2 days of work to get rid of. Anyone have any advice for me? I have AdAware, Spybot Search and destroy, SpywareGuard(which is annoying as hell, and pops up ALL THE TIME saying a new BHo has been added), BHODemon2.0, and some more. Needless to say, I've tried 'em all. Title: The about:blank virus Post by: LakersGM-old on February 05, 2005, 11:55:26 PM Download Mozilla Firefox off downloads.com. Its a great internet browser Much faster than internet explorer and comes with a built in popblocker and other guards. I have much less errors with my computer than i did when i used internet explorer its much better. Maybe itll help.
Heres the link to download it: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ Title: The about:blank virus Post by: RaptorsGM on February 06, 2005, 08:02:06 AM Well, I have Windows XP, and I share this computer with my parents and sister.
I leave next year for University, so I'm thinking I'll get a laptop, and I'll probably get Moxilla on it. But right now, my parents would probably not understand it. As it goes, the less technolgical inclined you are, the more you resist change.

my advice is to get rid of any spyware programs not named AdAware and Spybot Search and Destroy ... i just don't trust the other ones, they seem to slow down you computer and annoy the hell outta u with their "features" right now, i'm very happy with microsoft's spyware program when u install it, just make sure u read everything, it's very simple...u can choose to join the SpyNet(i think its called) network if you wish, just make sure you keep Real-Time Protection ON - what I like about it is that it doesn't annoy you nor does it slow down your computer... you can get it here (http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/1/5/815d2d60-49b5-44dc-ae35-fca2f2c6f0cc/MicrosoftAntiSpywareInstall.exe) in case you don't trust me :D , heres (http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx) more info on it.. |
