I would advise you to run a complete Virus scan and if you do not have it get Adaware and run it to remove male ware:
Ad-Aware 2007 7.0.2.6 Freeware download page - tested and reviewed software downloads from SnapFiles |

I have ad aware and a million other things on my computer..... but this computer is not mine, so I don't want to install anything. If anything gets changed on this computer then I get "in trouble". I even get blamed and in trouble if something goes wrong after I return it-- even if it has absolutely nothing to do with anything that I did. Once the owner had trouble getting it to reconnect to her wireless connection, and I got blamed for reconfiguring her internet access in the computer.... when I had not touched it at all. So, I do not install or do anything on here. I normally do not even allow it to do the updates because I don't want something going wrong and then I am in trouble. I do allow it to run its virus scan when it wants to automatically.
If I did not need to borrow this computer, I wouldn't. But my soon-to-be-ex took mine and put it in the pawn shop on loan so that he would have money. I am hoping to get it back with income tax money. Since all my schooling is on-line, I have no other option other than to borrow a computer, because I need internet access. Going to the library and using theirs is not an option for me, because it takes me about 2 hours a day (or more) on schoolwork, and taking 3 little ones to the library, while trying to do school, doesn't work.

Uh, I hope you meant MALware.

Oops and yes!
![]() I have to say this also- I have discovered that adaware no longer updates or supports it's freeware program. You can indeed download a new Adaware freeware but it is only a scanner and does not remove anything. |
