Spybot+Kaspersky AV+Hardware firewall= Unstoppable I've never had a problem that wasn't fixed easily. No need for anything more.

Thx Shlonky, gonna try that combo. Im all fd up right now about:blank, smitfraud.c and some stuff called vcodec residing on the machine. Might just whipe the comp and start over, dont really have much to lose on it anyway. Was running Avg anti-virus (sux ass) and zone alarm freeware version. Had Mcaffee before and never had a problem, subscription just ran out so I thought I'd give some freeware a try. I must have dumbass written all over me.

just whipe the comp and start over

thats what i usually do, for protection i only use ad-aware personal (free) and mcafee from limewire
and about the dl spyware from other sites unintentionally just use firefox, ive never had any problems with it

spyware doctor + avast! + that's it + stop adding things there's no more + damnit stop! = No problems.

I had the same problems, I'd just go out and buy "Defender Pro" becuse thats what i did . After that settles in i've got something for spyware doctor that will help your computer, im not going to say but email me if you need free protection [email protected]

i have adaware se personnel, spybot search and destroy, zone alarm basic, and AVG free edition.

AVG has never found sh*t, zone alarm blocks a lot, and every now and then i have trouble with a virus from websites, i never dl anything tho so not sure why.

edit - i had nortons for a few years, and i know a lot of you bash it, but i liked nortons a lot better, seemed like it worked better. i jsut didnt have 50 bucks a yr for its renewal.

ive also tried kaspersky, spyware dr, spysweeper i bought for one year which is great btw if you got the money for it. but i dont use any of these anymore.

I have about the same setup as Derek there minus Zone alarm (which I used to use). Adware is great, AVG free is well, free and works fine for me. I don't download a whole lot of stuff either.

I have the same sh*t except I would throw Previx in there for really f*cking nasty sh*t.

windows defender ftw. funny that MS had to make an excellent program to repair and protect it's sh*tty OS. Defender really does rule. You gotta be genuine windows tho. Get it here


if you have a variant of coolwebsearch you need CWshredder. It's so small and works so well, get it anyway the scan takes like 20 seconds. get cwshredder here
