the vault

[joker14]

so i got some viruses and i think i sent them all to the vault(i have avg free version) but i'm still getting pop-ups can someone help me on stopping this epidemic

 

[bass_man1989]

Pop-ups are most likely spyware. Try Spybot Search and Destroy.

Spybot - Search & Destroy - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com

That should clean up all the loose ends.

 

[bass_man1989]

Forgot one more thing. If you wanna kick the shit out of viruses/spyware in the future use this...

Free Antivirus for Windows - Open source GPL virus scanner

...along with AVG and SpyBot S&D. Personally I just use AVG though.

go to their post and hold your cursor over the line with the info. It will link you that way.

 

[bass_man1989]

Yeah, the middle lines in both posts. There was something else I wanted to add but I forgot. If those two don't help let me know and I'll try and remember what I wanted to say.

get spy sweeper. it's $20 a year, and you can do amazing virus and spywear sweeps. it's the best out there.

if you're looking for a good firewall as well, search for Zone Alarm.

Try Spybot Search and Destroy.

This man knows what he is talking about.

I use :

AVG
Spybot Search and Destroy
Zone Alarm

and some other free spyware thing, and I've never had a problem yet in my 10+ years of web surfing.

It's where a lot of the system files Windows uses are stored. If you delete it your computer won't boot.
