Possible Spyware Problem ?

DeronM · #1 04-13-2005, 05:49 PM

Whenever I am online, or just logged into XP, I constantly get these messages that come up:

I have done spyware searches and it still does not seem to solve the problem.

Any suggestions?

Yeah dude why do you think it tells you to go to a specific site.. use spybot or something..

Just a thought, did you update all your security programes, 6 critical updates just released from Microsoft, have you ran them in safe mode, did you turn off System Restore these points cannot be scanned.Have you tried an online virus scanner or trojan scanner you may be getting false readings.
Look at this sticky all instructions here Windows XP Solutions - An Outline - PLEASE READ at the begging of the Win XP Forum.

Might be a virus

remember the best place to scan using your anti-spyware program and antivirus is in SAFE MODE

also clear your MSCONFIG of stuff you don't need
