Is it just on one browser?
Or have you tried others.
and have you attempted to do some virus scans? sounds like malware >.>;;
- 27 Dec. 2009 12:43am #14 I'm scanning with superanti spyware, would that work. Originally Posted by La Vie Cruelle

@Defy
I'll use a system restore if I don't find anythig on the scan >.<Last edited by Eli; 27 Dec. 2009 at 12:48am.

La vie cruele, it's only on my internet explorer 8.
IT doesn't come up in Firefox.
- 27 Dec. 2009 12:49am #16 Download AVG And run a slow scan. Then click remove all infected files... Originally Posted by Elirocks

Then your internet explorer files were edited, either attempt to fix it on your own or reinstall it.
- 27 Dec. 2009 12:53am #18 No they wont. It will simply remove any infected files, which he has to do anyway. Any infected file can re-download the virus even if the virus is removed... Probably anyway, if it is a well designed virus... Originally Posted by Defy

The home of Spybot-S&D!
You can try that, it's the only one i can think of at the moment e.0;
Adware specifics-wise
- 27 Dec. 2009 12:57am #21 That may not be all it is doing. Thats just all we know its doing... Originally Posted by Defy

Might be uninstalling drivers, restricting sites, ect.
Then he uses it as a slave computer.
- 27 Dec. 2009 12:58am #22 AVG is better... Even the free version... Originally Posted by La Vie Cruelle

Also, it doesn't hurt to run more than one scanner.
If he has vista, windows defender should already be on there- and he should throw that scanner on too.
