I just did a huge spyware cleanup, and removed a lot of stuff. However, I have one thing that won’t go away.
This toolbar was installed by some bit of spyware or another, and now I can’t get rid of it. if I choose to hide it, it just reappears next time I open a folder or IE. Can anyone help?
Plus, my homepage keeps getting changed. I ran HijackThis, but whenever I change my homepage, a short while later it tries to change to www.web--search.com. I finally just set that as my homepage to shut it up.
Dude, I have to ask, how the fuck do you keep having this shit get reinstalled??? What acts of brilliance compel you? The newer versions of adaware will run on restart to kill these things if it can’t kill it when you run the program. Also, try running the programs in safe mode.
Actually they do appear out of ‘nowhere’ sometimes. There’s a similar bar you get from yahoo if you click something and it doesn’t go away unless you find the proper icon on the thing to turn it off. I couldn’t find it once so I just shrunk the part of the browser it was in so it couldn’t appear
If you run hijackthis v.1.98.2 save your log and post it here I could probably help you. I’ve had stuff like this happen before and ad-aware doesn’t take care of it.
Speaking of problems. I have an issue. A lot of times, pages won’t load for me. Dunno why. It just won’t connect. I had to load this three times and four times to post.
Sounds like an error with your cache, timeout, parser, or physical connection. Has it been happening for awhile? If so, it probably isn’t the physical connection. Try increasing the timeout and see if the page still doesn’t load. I don’t know how to work with the cache however, though i do know it deals with how pages load and how images are stored when loading. It could also be your parser, which is what reads the PHP that the boards use. Does it only happen on the Agora and other WebBoards? If so, then it may be your parser. If not, then it isn’t.
