After following a link to an internet quizie I found that my copy of IE has picked up a couple of parasites. I downloaded Spybot 1.2 and it got rid of most of them but I still have four parasites which Spybot can't seem to remove from my machine. Can anyone recomend another program to remove these die-hard parasites?

AdAware v6.0 was released (after several months of non-communicado from the developers). I use both SpyBot S&D and AdAware to get pretty much everything the other misses. There might still be a thing or two that BOTH miss, but less likely than using only one program.The cake is NOT a lie. It's so delicious and moist.

Stupid ads kept popping up on my desktop for one and the front page of poly told me was the second hint.

but I'm thinking spy bots aren't the proper word for that.
They aren't very good spies if they are discovered that easilyComment

There are passive spybots and then there are the ones that pop-up a bunch of crap ads. I had a half dozen different ones which I suspect all got installed when I stupidly downloaded a plug in from the Gator Corp.

well this is weird. After viewing this thread I just had a whole bunch of pop ups come up.
I also had a cnn.com window open. Perhaps CNN is getting desperate and doing a whole bunch of pop-up.
What are the odds I get a spy-bot after reading this thread?Comment
