I Finally Figured Out Whats Wrong With My Computer.

[Balmung]

Rember when i made a thread called "Comp Prob's" or w/e We'll i took it to best buy today cuz my computer was messed up so bad so they said i had Ad-Ware,Spy-Ware and Matrix Something + My internet Got Hijacked so i couldnt log into anything thats why i couldnt log into yahoo.. but yea i just re-formated my computer and its fine now waiting for ANDY To get on aim to send me my war3 keys...

I run a spyware/virus scan every friday of every week, so I don't have such problems. But I'm glad you settled your problem. Maybe you can visit BF some more now?

 

[¥ôÜ §úçK]

or maybe you couldnt....

thats a pretty.....common/simple prob to fix

 

[Balmung]

Yes, It is and im staying with BF, But Having a Matrix Spyware is Hard to Acually Get rid of No Spyware Can Detect it Spy Sweep, Doc Spyware, Ect..Ect.. and U haveto Re-Format Your Computer All Over Again. and re-dl everything and having my cdkeys ect..ect and thats just gets annoying.

get norton antivirus etc and u wont get spywares and dont pirate or go to porno

Use the following:

Mozilla Firefox
Adaware
A virus scanner (Norton or Avast work well, Avast is free)
Trojan Scanner (Tauscan comes to mind)
Firewall (ZoneAlarm isn't terrible, for a free one)
And if your computer manages to get compramised after ALLLLLL of that (which it won't), run Hijack This! and rout that mess out.

just go with norton or symantic, make sure windows is constantly being updated...assuming thats ur os...and try to go to safe porn sites and not download anything. watch what games you play and on what servers, some servers in like cs are dangerous

Norton Anti VIrus Only protects Weak Spyware, It does not Protect agesnt Matrix,Ad-ware ect..ect..

Kazaa is a pretty big security hole. Almost as bad as internet explorer ^_^.

If those don't keep your computer clean, nothing will. And just using mozilla will help you avoid a large quantity of spyware. Tauscan and Hijack This! are more for when you think you've got a problem with your computer, and HT! takes a bit of expertise to use.
