Spyware/Popup help

ShY · Feb 2, 2006, 04:26 AM

I don't know how this happened but for some reason this "toolbar" called zango started installing on my computer and I couldn't do anything to stop it. I pressed ctrl alt delete and I had 3-4 weird applications running. I uninstalled all the weird files from add/remove and deleted the folders manually. I ran adaware like 10 times and each time I ran it it picked up 13-15 files. No matter what I did they kept coming back. I also went to processlibrary.com and checked all my processes and closed all the weird ones. I restarted my computer and I was still getting popups. Even now I am still getting weird appliactions and random popups even though I have restarted my comp like 5 times. Can anyone help me? I also tried to restore my computer but it failed each time.

I recommend 3 softwares. Install the three of them:
- Adware Away: http://www.tucows.com/preview/364199
- Ad-aware: http://www.tucows.com/preview/236049
- Spybot S&D: http://www.safer-networking.org/
