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. |

I think the neglible objects are tracers the computer uses, like how a computer remembers which folders you usually use in a programs, ex WinZip, but I delete them just to be safe, to be honest if you want a good scan when your comp boots up press F8 and keep pressing, and you will get a screen with options, go to safe mode and you should use Spyware Doctor there, cleaned my comp in a snap, yeah it runs slower but some of the spyware/adware programs don't run therefore they can be deleted...
and yea if you have a diff homepage SPYWARELICIOUS |
