Think my pc's caught something
hi whoscarl. Here's a few measures that will probably remove it. if it doesn't, let me know and I can give you some more in-depth procedures. this program is spyware btw.
1. go into your ad/remove programs and check for new.net and 180searchsolutions. if either of these are in there, remove them. also, if you don't recognize any of the programs, feel free to post them here and I'll let you know if they're legit.
2. download ewido free anti-virus from www.ewido.net . this is a wide-range anti-malware program. do NOT use other anti-malware programs unless you check with an experience person first, as most on the web are spyware themselves.
3. go to www.trendmicro.com and do their free online scan
4. download winpatrol from www.winpatrol.com. this program will list all running processes in your computer and notify you if a new process has been added, asking if it's ok. once installed, you'll have a little black doggy icon in your bottom right-hand corner called "scotty the watchdog".
5. make sure you have all the latest windows security updates and service pack 2 installed. both available at www.microsoft.com
