I'm officialy a Firefox user. IE CAN KISS MY ASS as of today - GoFuckYourself.com

azguy · 11-29-2004, 12:05 AM

But for some reason, spywares are taking over my Firefox as well.... all kinds of popups and fake sites.. damn. Oh well, I can't waste a week on a complete format and re-installation of all my software [read: porn].

Maybe cauz there was already spywares in your computer ?

And they are popping up pages in default browser ?

Supposedly I cleaned them all. That's what 9 different spyware/adware/hijackware/fuckwares are saying.

well you still have some adware/spyware

Safe mode when you remove stuff. I assume you ran the appropriate programs and a anti virus scan as well.

Installing msconfig (if your OS isn't running it) is always nice too in case its something that keeps booting at startup.

Check your add/remove programs.. make sure theres nothing funky added there w/o your knowledge...

Once you've done all that, post you hijack this log if you like

sumphatpimp · 11-29-2004, 12:21 AM

click on
tools/options
then set it up the way you want. turn off javascript will help. under "privacy" their are some things to set that will help too. and get a firewall. that will also help to keep out unwanted crap.

Have you tried Spy Sweeper by www.webroot.com ? I don't have any problems at all with IE or Firefox. I also run Grisoft for antivirus and love it!

3 antiviruses (Panda, Symantec, and some Russian one I was recommended... Kas something. Whatever, I fucking removed it later) + 9 spyware removers.

It doesn't seem like there's anything to be removed manually, that's what fucking bothers me

That process SLEE81.EXE... I can't close it (protected!) and it cannot be found in the filesystem. Could be this one is the last one to remove... Will try harder.

thanks

Turboface · 11-29-2004, 12:51 AM

I've had it with all the bullshit going on with spyware, adware, malware, etc. lately.

That's why I just created SpyWar.

mkx · 11-29-2004, 01:01 AM

I just got it an hour ago. Don't see to much difference except my text being harder to read as I type and view page source showing up as an html file so I have to copy it into notepad before pasting it in my editor. Hopefully I will know why i downloaded it within a week.

mardigras · 11-29-2004, 01:02 AM

I laughed at CNN tonight when they were running a piece on Firefox and spyware and said that Firefox wasn't vunerable to them like IE

When the number of people using Firefox is worth virus/spyware writers writing for, they will write for them
