My computer is loaded with adware vermin. Took over my internet home page, locked up my screen on sales ads for an adware removal program, other ads. Ads everywhere. I also get all kinds of e-mail fronm screw balls pedddling viruses, nigerian and african scam artists. We pay a lot each month for Internet service. We need anti virus, firewall, spam and ad remover software. It's a big load of manure.

I use/downloaded Sygate Personal Firewall. Free. Should be able to find it on hotfiles.com. It works very well.

Thanks Ben, I'll try it. These internet hoaxsters seem to create these nuisance problems, spying on our computers,violating privacy rights of Americans, loading our computers with manure, then offering up bogus fixes for the problems they create. Ad-aware and Spybot seem legit, but others seem to be just channels for the downloading of more manure. Dorks get an internet address and then send out their viruses in notes that appear to be coming from that address. Yella bellied cowards wearing dresses. Lots of people think they can avoid problems by not downloading. Truth is all you have to do is surf the net, open a few ads. You'll have spy crap all over your computer in no time. Just like bats in the attic. It stinks. You really can't use the net without being infected.

Download FREE home versions of AdAware and Spybot S&D.

They will clean up your garbage.

Thanks Bob, I tried both. They cleaned it up a lo. I'm probably going to get Norton security firewall and anti-spam ware.

You are correct. Luckily my ISP does his best to take care of that stuff, and gets rid of probably 95% of it.
