[mattygti-r]

swear ive got some kind of pc virus on this computer...

the deal is im on BT BB, dont have any other programes to proect the pc apart from...

"Spywear blaster" and "Spy Bot" :nod: :)

try some sort of trojan remover, i always run 2-3 different programs as they are not all 100% effective

How shit must the old Ad-aware have been? I usually got about 10-20 items found but when I ran the new Ad-aware after I downloaded it this afternoon it found 148 items :eek:

My surfing activities have been no different in the last couple of days since I ran the old Ad-aware. :confused:

Yeah, I noticed it found loads of new stuff too.

AdAware from Lava soft is the Daddy IMO

Hmmmz, I'm going to have a blast with these when I get home, having the same install of W2K for over 2 years with no firewalls etc means this could be amusing :)

Used the old adaware about 7 months ago and found 500+ thingys
