Spyware
I have used ad aware and every time I log back on the spyware is back. I used to have another free program that worked but can't remember the name. Any suggestions?

Re: Spyware
You will have a lot less problems if you use the mozilla browser instead of IE.

Re: Spyware
The only thing in my start menu was dlhelper.exe, now gone,
How do I find task manager? I am not sure grannie, there was quite a few things, I have not downloaded microgaming stuff lately. I think I picked this crap up at consumptionjunction which a friend told me about. |

To protect against reinfection download and use these: Javacool's SpywareBlaster Javacool's SpywareGuard Malware-blocking HOSTS file If you still experience problems after doing these steps, download HijackThis Good luck JAque |

Re: Spyware
just do Ctr-Alt-Del and look at the menu of processes running. Anything suspicious, just end task it and once you've gotten rid of anything that looks like it doesn't belong, then run your various antivirus and spyware programs. This might not help at all, but you never know.
