OK, I'm not sure if this is happening to anyone else, but some sickos >:( are trying to ruin my computer by putting Spyware (the ones that look at what you are doing) and viruses (The programs that ruin your computers) and so recently I have had to but the latest version of Norton Antivirus 2005, because my old version of 2002 was not working anymore and they told me to get the new version, anyway, I have tried millions of programs to try and stop but they just don't stop. Please give me your thoughts on this!!
for Spy-ware you could try ewido.com or microsoft anti spyware or spybot search & destroy with ewido and microsoft they have "real-time" protection which runs as long as your computer is on and will help prevent it. do you have an up to date firewall that may help also.
I just downloaded Microsoft Anti Spy-ware and it destroyed a few and I thought it was the end, turns out it wasn't!!!
try ewido micro-soft said i had no spyware and ewido found 203
A good combo would be LavaSoft's Ad-Aware and SpyByt's Search & Destroy.

OK, I'll try where can I get it from? you can get ewido from www.ewido.com
OK, hereatic, I am trying the Online Scan, just to see if I had the program of ewido...if it would pick it up
www.spywareinfo.com has everything that you need, including HiJack This! It's a GREAT site for spyware info and resources.

Thanks Bear, I'll check it out, on the online scanner so far I have about 356 different Spyware! :D
good luck with getting your spy-ware problem sorted out
Thanks hereatic555, and The Bear, for all your help, I really Appreciate it :)
I use Ad-Aware, SpywareBlaster, and AVG virus protection and have had no problems in ages. Good luck on your search and destroy mission.

I highly recommend www.trend.com for AV and firewall and www.webroot.com for spyware. Spysweeper is a gem! O0
Those are the two I use also. Spysweeper found a bunch of stuff that the others didn't.
I think the free trial for spysweeper give you one definiton upgrade.
That's what sold me Jeffer. When it found things Spybot and AdAware didn't. I bought the 2 year subscription. You get a bit of a discount that way. O0
I use microsoft spyware myself and i had many spywares at the time but since the latest updates they are history and have been for awhile now. But if your delete them and don't reboot I don't beleive they are gone from what I noticed. As for antivirus I am using the avg anti-virus. O0
Gee Max. Not only are you the BadgeHog but it sounds like your a ProgramHog also. :P j/k
Good one. ;) Now all I need is a program that will clean my house for me.
Oh yeah.....they're called wives. :P j/k
And to think that I charge people $150.00 (one time) for cleaning up/optimizing/updating/securing/immunizing their systems every 6 months. :)
You mean I can charge people for that? My brother would owe me a couple grand by now. LOL :P
Damn cheapskate won't spend the $299 to buy a new pc. I have to fix his pc 3-4 times a year. :o
This thread has me singing now.....
There ain't no bugs on me,
There ain't no bugs on me,
There might be bugs on some of you mugs,
There ain't no bugs on me.

Oh great, it took me a week to get the Slinky song out of my head you implanted there. Thanks, this song should be good for the weekend in my brain.
Remember you started it. :P
I'll get you my little pretty and your little smilies too!
Just remember I have more ammo than you. :P
I also use Spy Sweeper. . . .I love it!!! Spybot Search & Destroy was good but SpySweeper always told me I had stuff that the other didn't O0
Hogs* not hags*
I think Microsoft Antispyware is the best program. It got everything that Spybot and Spy Sweeper missed.
I got SpySweeper, for some reason Microsoft Anti-Spyware missed EVERY SINGLE ONE, SpySweeper got them all!!, I might have a few it might've missed, but now my computer is much faster, and I have a little more security that not that many people are looking into what I am doing now
i have to say i use nod32 for viruses and and for spyware and ad ware i use BPS.Spyware.Adware.Remover.v9.4.0 and i love it
I use Trend internet security that cover spyware maleware adware and virus I also run spyware doctor. Both products run (background) scans several times during the day. it works well for me. I also so have a firewall running
