ok I have two submitters that are pulling some really nasty browser high jacking... they both install or modify over 20 files to the windows root folder and folders within..

the typical fixes don't work.. only thing you can do is search for all the files changed or added at that exact time..

Is there anything I can do to stop this shit from being auto downloaded and still beable to tell it's there, so I can bann the fucker?

That really Sucks. I would just ban them anyway.
Not from a TGP, but there's shit that keeps auto-downloading on my computer, that keeps installing itself each time I restart it.

problem is these guys use a diffrent domain everyday as well as IP and so on.. so it makes it a bit hard.. Then if he manages to highjack your browser.. you have to close everything including the gallery review window.. So if you wern't paying attention you won't know who to ban..

I see, that could be so frustrating.
I don't know what to tell you then, that's such a stupid concept.
