 My name's Katt. Nice to meet you!  Group: Member Posts: 3,826 Joined: Jan 2005 Member No: 93,674  |
Does anyone have this problem?
The popups read: http://www.loadingwebsite.com/normal/yyy12.html and some say Redzip or online poker or Inkwire. I don't know how to get rid of them or how to download Hijackthis. I don't think my computer can open ZIP files and I don't really know much about Winzip or how to use it. Please help me! |

I would download Spybot S&D and/or AdAware and/or SpywareGuard (?) and/or Yahoo AntiSpy etc.

Another great one, which has done wonders for me would be the spyware removal by microsoft which has been recently released. I think the name was Microsoft anti-spyware beta. Of course i used it in combination with adaware 6 and spybot s&d

Lavasoft Ad-Aware, Microsoft Anti-Spyware, etc. Google them or go to download.com.
I seriously hate spyware. It slowed down our old computer tremendously, and caused so many problems. Our whole screen was filled with icons. Our computer used to get a ton of pop-ups, then it became to slow to even display them. Haha. |
