blike Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 So I must have some spyware or something that hijacks my google and yahoo searches and returns results to a bunch of spam crap. Anyone heard of this? Can anyone do a quick search on the internet for a fix?
Dave Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ - AdAware will remove the vast majority of spyware.
Sayonara Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 Browser hijack!!!! For god's sake people, junk IE before it destroys the world: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/3840101.stm
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 I'm glad I converted to firefox before it was too late... Go adaware! I think it's definitely better then Spybot S&D, since it does a full scan instead of just a few folders.
Dave Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 If you insist on using IE, then get a piece of software called SpywareGuard - it protects against a lot of hijacks and it's free - always good.
blike Posted June 25, 2004 Author Posted June 25, 2004 What's the difference between Mozilla and firefox? I saw them both on the website, but I went with firefox..
Dave Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 I think the only difference is that Firefox is a standalone web browser. Mozilla integrates Navigator, Mail, Address Books, Chatzilla, etc...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 Firefox is also modified a bunch, I think. Newer and better.
