JohnD Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 "SpyBot" does a nice job. Just keep it up to date and only delete the red checked items. Link to post Share on other sites

marty Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 I bought Pest Patrol about 4 months ago, that keeps all them nasty spyware junk out of my pc, stops them before they even get into my pc . It may cost 40. bucks but I got it for $20.00 when I bought Zone Alarm. I have no probs. with junk in my pc. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IronManDan Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Ok IM kind of lost. Ive got to the spyware site but what am I going to down load? Link to post Share on other sites
JohnD Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Top of page "download" white print on black background. This takes you to a page ---go to bottom of page and download. I had trouble with this page too. Link to post Share on other sites
shogan191 Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Do you think the Spybot is safe if you only remove what is automatically checked by the program itself. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IronManDan Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 I cant beleave I have all this inside my computer theres a lot in red here . Now how safe is this going to be if I remove all that is in red. Its showing 150 problems found (257 seconds) Link to post Share on other sites
radio Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 spybot has a restore feature if it causes any problem.... but I doubt that it will. you should also goto 'tools' , 'hosts', then import the spybot hosts file, it will help block the majority of tracking cookies from getting on your pc to begin with.

JohnD Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Make sure they are red and checked by spybot Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IronManDan Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Ok kool Ive added the host thingydo allso going to back up Once I backup it will all be traped there till I remove it yes Link to post Share on other sites
doofus Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 While using spybot ive always deleted all it found (except the IE pwd one) and ive not had any probs at all. Ok it has never found anything it can show in red for me to get rid of, but the odd things it picks up after a surf on the net gets busted on a daily basis Keith Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IronManDan Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Im going to have to restart because of some memory in use MAN I hope this all works thanks all Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IronManDan Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 KOOL IM SO HAPPY ALL is good here thanks again guys YOU ARE ALL LIFE SAVERS IN MY BOOK Link to post Share on other sites
doofus Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 (edited) Glad you got it sorted If your the kind who installs loads of programs and demo's and what nots then just get into a habit of running the spybot after the install. If it picks anything up which points to the program or whatever you installed then id just remove the program and then get rid of the spyware it found. You can leave it on your comp and use it if you like offcourse, but its not something i would do. Keith Edited January 29, 2003 by doofus Link to post Share on other sites
