    Re: Free spyware removers?

    People covered all the good free stuff.

    You might want to also completely format your computer if it's real bad.

    No it didn't.

    100% sure of that .. you have some bad infections I guess .. go into safe mode and install Malwarebytes and run a scan.

    When booting your PC hit the F8 key like it's a race ... then the menu popsup and asks you what kind of boot option you want, pick Safe Mode.

    Good Luck

    Malware DEFINITELY did not give you a virus.

    Turn your computer off and do not turn it back on again.

    Do you pay for it? Curiosity because we stopped using it at work after it started popping up ads itself, but we were using the free one.

    Re: Free spyware removers?

    BTW about that personal antivirus, those guides sometimes don't help. A friend of mine had gotten it, and those guides that tells you what's where were half wrong. Not saying for every case. I just found it easier to wipe windows clean and reformat.

    Yeah, that one literally just says to install malware and do a clean of your computer lol. So do as everyone says! i had me a virus that closed explorer.exe everytime i started the computer lol...i learned to run everything from the task manager, I WIN But i used a guide to get rid of it, actually worked lol. But now i have me a new comp and life is good
