SukhKular Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Probably just spyware. Run a spyware sweeper thing. I'm sure someone can suggest one. PS: Lay off the porn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLumme Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 google 'spybot search and destroy'. It's a good one and always works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudson bay rules Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 OK Spybot seemed to help. When I was posting before the bit at the bottom of the page used to have a clickable link for the word "single" (claimed to go to E Harmony) in the line "you can upload up to 134.21k of files (max single file size 134.21k)" and it's no longer clickable. hope that's all I need. thanx everyone.

hudson bay rules Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 When you restart the computer, as soon as you see the logo of your manufacturer of your computer, keep tapping "F8" till it goes to a second screen where you get to select different options.

ahzdeen Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 malware bytes is better for removing the actual spyware... Spybot is better for the deeper settings and registry issues... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 You should also investigate through MSconfig (Run "MSCONFIG" at the start menu) to see which processes are running first. Make sure you know how to use REGEDIT and follow the instructions to reach the paths. Lots of programs start by default by adding registry entries.
