I'm running Webroot Spy Sweeper now, i wonder if anything will come up, thanks for your help.
I'll run AntiVirus after AntiSpyware. |
And this would really explain about the speed issues you were complaining to ntl about in your other thread.
Do a search for your hosts file, and if it has a lot of entries in there, or doesn't look like this:
Code:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
then you probably have spyware/virus/Trojan Horse issues
You may want to try
Trojan Hunter as a possible remedy to this problem.
