i've uploaded these images for you to see. these warnings keep popping up on my window whenever i'm surfing the net. i've observed that it pops up everytime a website/webpage sucessfully loads. i dunno if it's a virus or an adware or something. the messages don't seem to make any point, but just as the same i've tried scanning my pc for viruses but it didn't find anything on my pc.
<br><br>
these are just some of the messages that keep popping up. but they contain almost all of the same messages, except for the website that it wants me to check out.
grr... i'll be doing another scan again so i'll check in a few.
Well i think its a company trying to get you to use there software so obviously its either the sites sending it to u or its on your computer. Or it could be real from microsoft but i doubt that
Nice Link. Looks like a good suggestion for the member to follow the recommendations given there. Hope it helps. Also, be sure to use the Spybot Updates regularly. There are new threats added to the lists often, so allow the spybot program to check for Updates before you run it.
i've ran a scan using ad-aware se personal. it didn't detect anything so i was thinking maybe the computer was fine. i had my brother use the pc afterwards and told him that if the same warning pops up, he should tell me. for a moment i thought it was the firefox browser because when my brother connected to the internet, he didn't get the warning at all because he was using internet explorer. but now i'm using ie, it still pops up.
so yeah, i'll check on that link now. and thanks for the help. i'll update you about the progress later.
i've tried doing both scans on spybot and ad-aware. and so far, i'm not getting any more of the warning. i'm keeping my fingers crossed though. even though i've ran 2 scans, just to make sure...
wait... i just got the warning again... grr... this is bad.
be right back.

Lol good luck on trying to remove the malware, if that doesn't help you remove the malware, try searching some info about how to on Google. I'm sure there's loads of sites that have information about it.
And, think about what you did before you got the thing popping up, what did you download, what sites did you go to? Think about those, it always helps me.
sorry bout the previous message. kinda experienced some glitch with the add reply button.
anyway, i've read the tutorial again, but there's one thing i'm quite unsure of doing. and that's using the hijackthis application. i'm not even sure if that's safe to use. i've ran the scan on both spybot and adaware but the warning still pops up. geez.
HijackThis is a respected a well done appliaction to detect everything running on your computer. It's safe and trusted utility used by professionals. Heck, look at how many hijack this logs are posted in Besttechie!
oh. ok. i'll try it later. i just installed a copy of microsoft antispyware and i've scanned my pc again. unfortunately it didn't detect anything, so my last resort would be that hijackthis application. but right now i have to sleep. it's past witching hour and i'm still awake.
Please read post #13 and #21 to find the answer. To turn off the messenger service,
Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services
and look for "Messenger" Right click and select Properties. Under General tab select "disable" on Startup Type. This will disable your intranet messenger service. It is also good idea to change your Network Group name to something else than the default "Workgroup" or "MsHome" This is the most common reason why you're getting internal messages.
Do you honestly think that Microsoft would install a service to spam people's comuters? I already wrote I know what I type and I was continually ignored. Anyways, that above article will stop your problem. And dark drgn, please don't tell me that I could be wrong. I wouldn't post unless I knew what the problem was.
EVERYONE CALM DOWN. Thank you. Wolves, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, you shouldn't go and bash them, you yourself could be wrong.. My suggestion for your messages is when they pop up, open task manager, go to applications and find the window, right-click on it and hit go to process, take note of what the process is called and then end it. Next go to control panel and then to "add and remove programs" look through the list for anything suspicious or similar in any way to the process name you just found, then uninstall that program. This is just a possible solution to your pop-up problem, for your browser and image problems, I have no idea. Seeing that this person has not replied for 7 days, I suppose it was a virus and finally got him.
Hey its definitely a malware. Well, there are many companies which make them for their publicity. They sometimes seem to be good but they are really bugging. They dont really do what they say they do. Just to get their website many many hits they do all this. I recommend you to never install any activeX components if any website offers them. And also you should get your computer protected with Norton Antivirus 2005, or Norton Internet Security which offers spam protection, FireWall, Blocks unauthorised access, blocks backdoor application and protects your computer from any attack. I would really recommend you to install a firewall.

so i woke up earlier to do some research on the net. i turned on my pc and suddenly my microsoft
antispyware (thank goodness!) keeps popping up a message that says "microsoft antispyware has
blocked a possible windows trojan d:\windows\services.exe from being running". i've
searched it on the internet and most of the sites that i saw said that it was a virus, since the
true services.exe is located inside the windows\system32\folder not the windows\
folder. so i've run updates on avg, ad-aware, spybot and microsoft antispyware and ran...
Holy *BLEEP*... I have these 2 indestructable viruses on my computer. My antivirus CAN NOT delete

names follow: aim95.exe virus name= adware.weatherbug.a wxbug.exe virus name= adware.weatherbug.a

what kind of hardware/software and services? Now i know i would need a willing ISP who would allow
me to do this, and if it got popular i might need a private line to them for high speed internet. I
know i would need a web server and of course a router/modem to conect it to the ...

opened popups randomly, and slowely my PC has been crammed with over 150 programs that Norton's

it generates errors trying to remove them, also Yahoo's Anti-Spyware software can't remove

Although we all hate computer viruses, it has now become a fact of life in day to day computing,
especially for those of us using the windows operating system. So here is what you have to do if
you are unfortunate enough to encounter one. 1)If you are connected to any network, make sure you
disconnect from that network and pull out the network cable as you don't want the virus to
spread throughout the network. 2)If you have an anti-virus software installed, run it. If you
don't have it installed, borrow a cpoy from friends or family or purchase it. 3)Keep run...
is it better to scan your system in safe mode? i've been having virus problems recently and i
really need to scan my system, but whenever i try to do it, the system hangs because of the virus
(or at least that's what i think is happening). at first i assumed it was hardware problems, but
i checked it and i didn't find any problem. i recently tried scanning in safe mode, but after i
switched back to normal mode, it seemed as if the scanning didn't help at all. or maybe it
worked, that i just didn't notice it....
During one of routine scans my viruscan did, it told me it had 5 .exe files that were infected by
the Parite virus. After looking online I found a removal tool by BitDefender, which apparently
didn't notice the viruses. I also found a website telling me to download a recovery file to a
uninfected computer (something I don't have access to), put it on a disk, run the infected
computer in Safe Mode and run the disk to clear the viruses. So far I have tried: Grisoft AVG -
found the viruses but didn't remove them BitDefender Parite removal tool - didn't even...
I've just read an interesting article about the mentioned topic, and I had to ask Trap17 forum
users of their opinion and perspective on this. As web is becoming more and more a medium for
communication with visitors and less and less "a static page" it also gains a bit of "intelligence".
Users now visit web sites and get a bunch of "recommendations", and alike stuff, based on their
profile. That is sort of intelligence, namely artificial intelligence . At some point, when
computers evolve and start using retinal scans, there should be no "login pages", and a visi...
