Re: Spyware popups? Download and run Ad-Aware. You can find it at www.download.com It gets rid of most but I'm sure some peeps are reporting that it doesn't get rid of all. You may need to reformat. You gotta watch what your installing. Anything with GATOR is a big no no. Try it anyway.
Gator is just a bent spyware thing, pretty damn annoying but nothing to worry about as such, can easily be removed. Nope - No need! - use AdAware and Window washer, gets rid of all the crap! ReFormatting is a pain in the arse and it would be mad to reformat to get rid of spyware since it will only come back anyway! Window washer is particularly good, you can download it HERE, just scrool down to near the bottom where it says Day3 - Its the last option in that section. you will need WinRAR to extract it, which will also be very useful in future for other compressed files. Download WinRAR HERE Its very effective, certainly worth a download! Also get pop up stopper its very effective. I use all three lol.
what is the deal with spyware, and all them pop up add things, I cant imagine anyone who uses the net to actually pay attention to them, or want them, and if you do see one, and then close it, and think a few days later oh I saw an add for I dunno laser eye correction, how the fuck will he find it again?
search for laser eye correction i guess some sites have loads of popups cos thats how they make their money. Companies etc pay them to spam you with pop ups. Very annoying but they can be blocked!
The thing is that im at work so they will know if i download anything. Is there a folder where these things hide so i can just delete them?
As a general rule, from IE, go to Tools > Int Options: Delete all cookies, all offline temp internet files, history. Also wipe out any recient document lists ot download manager lists. Thing is, even if you do this, chances are that because any internet usage comes through a main work server, anything you look at/download will be stored on there. But this in turn depends if your IT bother looking through the internet usage files.
cunts who write spyware/adware/pop-ups/spam should be killed very painfully. Couple o bad-ass niggers with blow-torches would be just perfect
also if you have XP or win 2k you can disable the messenger service which stops some messages and pop ups as well I have popup stopper so if anybody needs it PM me and I'll send it out
