Hi there, I got this fuckin spyware on my computer and it won't go away!
It's called xads.offeroptimizer.com.
when I open internet explorer, sometimes (appx 50%) another browser will appear in the taskbar. I think it isn't working right, because no ads come up on the computer, when I click on it, nothing happens, it doesn't seem to have a browser window. It is only on the task bar. But it is pissing me off none the less!
It should not be there, plus, after a few hours of work, sometimes I find the taskbar cluttered with them.
I have spent hours trying to get rid of it, I tried spybot, adaware, hijack this, and spyware blaster, Norton antivirus, panda online virus scan, and pcpitstop scan. I used a registry cleaning program, plus did a search on everything that had to do with xads and removed it.
What more can I do to remove this stupid thing?
