whenever i scan with ad-aware, i get some negligible objects? what are those, and is removing them helpful?
also, my computer is being really weird right now. my home page keeps changing and i can't access any other site because it says ACCESS DENIED or whatever. i'm scanning with both spybot and ad-aware but it deosn't seem to be working .. yeah, i'm on media browser right now because internet explorer is being really .. ugh. |

Some people are such computer noobs.
 I'm just playing around. You don't really have to delete negligible objects on Ad-Aware. They aren't viruses. I'm not too sure of what they are because I don't pay attention to them. I'm pretty sure they're just your history and what not. They don't pose any serious threat. And for your browser home page changing, that's called a browser hijack. You have spyware on your computer. Actually, I would consider it Malware. My suggestion to you is to run multiple scans with Ad-Aware or another spyware removal program. |
