Atlantis,
I have Vista. I went to start/control panel/uninstall a program. It was removed from the program list. Then it told me that it would be needed to be uninstalled manually. I can't see it now but I'm supposed to uninstall manually. |

I can't see it now but I'm supposed to uninstall manually. OH I see! Well, click on "computer" from the vista star menu, navigate to your hard drive, click on it, then scroll down to program files (click to open) and find its folder , right click on it and select delete. I'm not sure if it installs under the Program Files,but I would think so. |

I looked at C's and D's program files and didn't see it.

I downloaded "Hijack This" and realized that I couldn't handle it. Now my computer tells me that I have to delete it manually and I don't know how. The first victim of Mo Muirnin! I should have posted my warning about "hijackthis" Now you all suffer the consequences not listening to me. Winx start- control panel- add/remove software select the "hijackthis" and selected uninstall. Not sure if it's gonna work because it's been a while since I used it. If you cant remove it, then leave it where it is, it's a very small program and just don't use it that's all. Listen to me and get CCleaner and Spybot instead. Oh hell no, that's not my fault...I even said it's not for beginners...for there!!! Oh yes..suffer the consequences of not listening to yet another guy....oh boo hoo. Spybot this Spybot that! Spybot is way behind it's time now! lol And your comment "THe first victim of me"..oh please..victim my butt....don't make me sound stupid and like I don't know what the hell i'm talking about... |

It's better than nothing to have Spybot installed! You suggested to use the "hijackthis" program, which is really not for beginners or someones who have little understanding about registry and what damage he or she could do if removes the wrong keys either accidentally or not knowing what he is doing, and then we gonna get complaints about "hey, my stuff doesn't work anymore" or Vista doesn't boot! - Seen that all before! So I disagree with your advice as well! The person already indicated of having a virus program, so in conjuction with the Spybot, he should be a lot safer. and just because you use another browser does not limit your chances of getting a virus..it's the protection on your computer that helps with that..i know both FF and Chrome have phishing protection against harmful sites, but some sites still go through...
I have also mentioned firefox as well but Google Chrome is far safer than Internet Explorer. The person have a pop-up problem and most likely tied to having such cookies stored as well as his temporary folder probably filled with junk as well. Spybot will cleanse the temporary folders as well as check the cookies if something is out of order or should not be around, that will be all taken care of. "hijackthis" will not do any of these functions so there! I also recommend CCleaner which will clean both temp files, cookies, registry keys that should be out of order. http://filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ His case is not as severe as it seems like, most likely he has no viruses, but some nasty adware and his virus program won't pick up on it! I neither recommend your recommendation of "No script" whatsoever, since 75% of the websites are flash and when he gets on the web and the internet pages will look like Microsoft Word documents, you gonna get some hate mails, LOL! No script can be disabled for a safe website...If they are absolutely stupid, which you are implying, then they should still even know how to disable noscript on the website LOL You know what, I also never said HiJackThis would clean his system LOL ....one thing I hate is people putting words in my mouth or in this case, typing in words I never said. I even said with HiJackThis that they should upload to a forum as well as post here...HijackThis is great and if someone can lead the "computer newbies" on how to fix something, it's as easy as pie.... Next time read my full post before you start typing something that's irrelevent! |

I looked at C's and D's program files and didn't see it. Since it's not in your program files than I suggest that it's gone. It does not install itself anywhere else.... |

Another way to do it is hit Ctrl Alt Delete Select Task Manager go to File / New Task Once there type in regedit Vista sucks.. You have to type in Regedit in the search then right click on it and run it as an administrator... |

personally, i find this post has degenerated badly. i agree only with ksknight72. he has left the post i imagine because he knew it wasn't worth the trouble. his advice was sound: posting a highjackthis log on a computer forum in a new post, not on a website like this. here is one of the best ones out there.
www.geekstogo.com Advice is free, and when it comes to malmare, only people that have graduated from geek university can post replies in those forums. SO the advice given is from EXPERTS only. BTW even a newbie can install highjackthis, copy the log, and post it on that site. the rest will be EXPLAINED STEP BY STEP by the one replying. I will NOT re-reply in this forum, to me it is useless. The advice given in this reply goes for ANYONE with COMPUTER PROBLEMS |

The advice given in this reply goes for ANYONE with COMPUTER PROBLEMS Of course a site that primarily deals with tech related issues is better off answering the question...but he posted it to us, a varied bunch of people knowing full well at least one would know how to fix it. I'm trained in malware removal, I'm pretty good at it too. Geek university is just another way of saying trained, anyone can do it...it doesn't take a special breed of person to go through their courses, you can do the same thing at techsupportforum or any other support related community...nothing special really, they just teach you how to read HJT logs and other logs (DXDiag, PC Profile, etc.). Hell, I knew right off the bat he got his problem from searching free porn. |
