Have you tried AVG Anti-Spyware(free)? Last year a trojan malware entered my secondary computer after I inadvertently clicked some link or ad on a webpage. I started getting pop ups warning me there was an impending security threat to my computer unless I clicked the link in the popup to download some program I'd never heard of. I went to a message board that was computer security themed and discovered the malware was actually listed in this site's database, and that AVG Anti-Spyware would snag and quarantine it. It did. I also read numerous reference to AVG Anti-Spyware being adept at catching these annoying adware and malware programs. http://free.avg.com/download-avg-anti-virus-free-edition I've also heard that Avast's freeware anti-spyware(and anti-virus) programs are good: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html You may want to register and start a topic thread about your problem, Russ, at this website: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial101.html |
