Xterminator September 12, 2006 Share Xterminator Member September 12, 2006 (edited) did a spyware scan and got rid of most of it i think. I'm still getting a Party Poker pop-up whenever i open up IE. If any Admin sees this i recommend that Saris' post be edited and the link removed. I'm sure he didn't do this intentionally.

Saris September 12, 2006 Author Share Saris Member September 12, 2006 (edited) Ouch. Ya sorry, guys, I use firefox and I had no problem, so I thought the site was safe. Really sorry about that. That's a shame, they were really fun and challenging puzzles. Edited September 12, 2006 by Saris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty September 12, 2006 Share Fatty GC Founder September 12, 2006 Maybe it's a good time to share people's favorite spyware removal systems. I used to use Adaware, but didn't they stop updating it or something? Can't recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playaa September 12, 2006 Share Playaa Member September 12, 2006 I use Ad-Aware AND Spybot Search & Destroy. They both tend to get things the other one misses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00b3rN00b September 12, 2006 Share 00b3rN00b Member September 12, 2006 Use Adaware then HijackThis. In order to use HijackThis, you must go to a HijackThis forum and post your results, then await an answer for what you must remove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
