Sucks

[PJ]

Bah. From all the symptons on my computer it appears I have Spyware.

Can't download Spybot, since my computer will close any download thing that comes up. Can't get it send though Messenger, it won't accept it.

Basically, everything is slowed down, and I almsot have no Memory. Teh sucks.

So to even be able to get this far, I've had to uninstall a few programs...

Biggest one is AIM http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif No more big AIM chats, or atleast I get my computer fixed http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_cry.gif

For some reason, Messenger works though http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Check your C File Program Files. Anything you find thats all stupid like

(Like GATOR for instance) is horrid trash and should be removed and such. But becareful! SOmetimes the Uninstall button there is a BRING IN MORE SPAM device (i learned...) so yeah~

>_>

I can use all of the various anti spyware programs, but my little devil likes to reform after i kill it.

Right now i am trying a mix of Spybot to kill it and Spywareblaster to keep it dead. It most likely won't work. Nothing does http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_cry.gif

That's specifically the reason why people don't like IE. It's most targetted by Spyware because everyone uses it.


On the other hand, if everyone used Mozilla, then we'd have people reccomending IE for immunity to Spyware. Ironic, I think.

Mozilla is Netscape a good 6 months to a year ahead of time. Open-source Web Browser. It's got a great deal of features that Internet Explorer lacks, has better support for a number of different file formats and generally isn't targetted by Spyware tactics because there are only a few people using it. The only downside to it that I'm aware of, is that it's slower to pick up on new HTML standards than IE.

Then again, if you're used to using IE, then you may find yourself with an irrational dislike for Mozilla.

Personally, I rather like IE's simple interface. Mozilla isn't quite as aesthetic, but I generally prefer to use it when going into "dangerous" territory. It's a software pirate's best friend, really. I suppose it might be considered the pr0n surfer's ideal surf board, too.

Anyway, you can get it here (http://www.mozilla.org/).
