Man last night I am sitting here doing homework on the net. I am almost finished and ready to send my work to my professor when my pc starts acting up.
Well I am using IE because aol browser does not work well with every site.
I get ready to check one more link and all these damn pop ups start coming up and then I get this bullshit saying magicsearch.
And boy this mofo won\'t let you go to any site. It redirects back to the magicsearch shit.
So I check my registry and this mofo was redirecting my urls. So I kept changing it and it kept coming back. So ended up going to bed.
Came back down today and did a show hidden files and found all these crappy files on my pc. And this mofo had tons of shit running in my task mngr I had to stop
Man the guy who created this bitch should be shot dead. Boy is it a mother****in shame of a virus.
-
Yeah... just finished update\'n my Virus killer just now.
Away...
I miss the old Rant\'s and Raves forum...
It was kind of fun.
-
It is a hijacker... run Spybot S&D and if that doesn\'t work download CWShredder - it is the same thing as the coolweb hijacker and I believe it works for this as well.
-
I hate spyware!! :(
*goes off to update ad-aware/spybot*
-
*sends Quddus the "can of worms" virus* :D
Your PC will have diarhea and die. ;)
-
check for updates often. ad-aware releases updates a few times a week usually. And make sure you have the newest version. If you have the old version the updates won\'t show up.

Man this mofo was a bitch to get off finally got all his files off of my pc. Man I can\'t stand these cock suckers that using all there time ****ing up people lives.
I have a lot stuff to do and I wasted the entire day getting rid of a stupid virus.

-
Just run Mozilla Firefox and you won\'t have to worry about things like this.

You should see my thread in the PC Forum. It\'s quite the subject heading :) "Me = Stupid" :D
-
I also recommend Firefox, that is sweet piece of browser ass my friend.
-
i think my computer have something of virus attack too.
-
These guys do deserve to be dragged into the street and shot. When I go on the internet, I don\'t want to be bombarded by popups. I want to browse the forums in peace and whatever else I do.

I miss it too. I thought it gave a nice outlet for things that don\'t get as much attention in the OT forum. I was disappointed when it closed :(

You would say that if someone accidentally put mayo on your sandwich. Jesus ****ing christ.
And if you take the right precautions (spyware, popup blocker, antivirus/not asking for mayo) you wont get it.
-
But the fact is, we are forced into taking those precautions. It\'s an annoyance that shouldn\'t even exist. It\'s like having a sandwich that doesn\'t have mayo on listed on the ingredients. I shouldn\'t have to ask for no mayo when it\'s not supposed to have mayo.
-
The majority of people would prefer mayo on their sandwhichs I presume.
And tell me how hard it is to simply download those components to stop them? The annoyance to me is next to none, update them once a week and your fine.
Im not defending the virus makers, but Im saying instead of bitching get something going and get anti-/virus/spy/popup program.
-
Oh I do have anit-/virus/spy/popup programs, and no it isn\'t hard to get them. Unfortunately that isn\'t what I was "bitching" about. I\'m bitching about the fact that they even exist. The fact that people take the time and the effort to annoy the rest of the world. People that waste their lives trying to annoy other people really should be dragged out into the street and shot. It would do the world some good.
Edit: shouldn\'t this be in the PC forum?
-
Yes it should.
moving..

Shooting someone wont solve your problems. It will only fuel your fire.

You are just now catching on?

I wonder what kind of drugs Spudz took when he wrote that.

I kinda agree that whoever the heck took their stupid times to make these viruses should be punish. This kinda remind me of bad times where students bullying me and those people deserve to be punish.

ah..so YOU was the kid with the thick lens glasses & checkerboard pants? damn i apologize paul2! ;) j/k bro. i agree with everybody else that it\'s a pain in the a** that people will go to great lengths just to make your life frustrating...as with anything you have to take the good with the bad.
just like when you buy a car you have to worry about the ex-girlfriend that might come by and flatten your tires due to the fact that she found out you was sleeping with her sister and..uhm..wait..what was i saying?
