Download the free trial of SpySweeper and see if it turns anything up.
Hi i did that thank you but it did nt work as soon as i got back online boom, next to the name it has a java symbol i dont know if that can help you with anything, could the run time error have anything to do with it?
Run time errors don't cause popups other than the original error message. Adware/Spyware do. You may have inadvertantly installed it by downloading something from the internet or it could have been installed on your pc by a hacker if you are not running a firewall.
Have you been messing with your java. There is a plug in software called Eclipse. I don't know if it is related to your problem or not.
last week my Java disappeared or something i couldn't load any pogo game, so through your site i re installed it by other than that no, between both spyware ad-ware and spy sweeper I'm clear on all that i dint have a firewall, any help will be greatly appreciated
hi, i do a lot of computer programming and I use ECLIPSE exstensively. It is a free resource funded by IBM and it lets me edit JAVA language code. Now, I am not sure why it has appeared on your computer, but if the eclipse you are describing is the one I am familiar with, it is definitely not ad ware or spy ware. go here to learn more about eclipse. http://www.eclipse.org/org/index.html
Try scanning using Spybot Search and Destroy.
You can get it at www.download.com
I also suggest you get a firewall to block unwanted intrusions to your pc. Irreparable harm can be caused if you don't use one.
If you are not using anti-virus you should consider this as well.
If you are using XP it comes with a firewall. If not you might try ZoneAlarm or another program.
hi thanks again im downloading spybot now, i went to the eclipse site i dont think its the same all the pop up are for cars diet stuff free movies for a year college stuff and really annoying, if it is something in my java wouldnt it show up? and when i did the search on my computer for it it came up in my c drive under settings if this helps any
oh by the way i do have xp so i do have a firewall i was always famliar with it through my mcafee but havent renewed it yet
It could also be related to messenger popups. To make sure you have that disabled follow the steps below.
To turn off the Messenger service, just follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel (or point to Settings, and then click Control Panel).
2. Double-click Administrative Tools.
3. Double-click Services.
4. Double-click Messenger.
5. In the Startup type list, click Disabled.
6. Click Stop, and then click OK.
i just did that it was disabled, i found when the file was created it was actually yesterday its an excutable jar file, i still cant delete it from my control panel, its also weord i have yahoo which pop up blocker is great and it lets them go thru, thank you so much for your continued help
How did you find the file?
i ran a search under my c and d drives with the name eclipse
