    Need help with malware!

    I dispise malware. I am having to scrub my machine with lavasoft nearly everyday now.

    What is the best why to keep this nasty malware from even loading on my machine?

      try download.com for a firewall program to keep the garbage out

      or hit up google for a firewall program

        Sounds great AaronM. I will try and give you a call later today. Have to go for an eye appointment.

        Wife says if I would quit surfing porn this malware would not be a problem... go figure.

          I have a firewall on my router but apparently it is lacking. Thanks for the idea. Will go looking for one now.

            And she's probably right too. lol
            SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

              i would do this

              taskmanager, then look for weird exes, do a google search to find out what they are to double check

              then do a search on your computer to find those exes, leave the search open when it is done

              go to start, run, regedit then hit control f at the top to search through your registry, search for that exe. find all the spots in your registry and remove them. go to your task manager and kill the app there, then remove it from when you searched

              now empty your rec bin and reboot
              want to buy this spot for cheap? it is of course for sale. long term deals are always the best bet. brand0n/ at/ a o l dot commies.
