My Advice: Quit posting!

Ok, I\'ve downloaded them, but I don\'t know what I have to do, I did a scan and it found 33 objects, 22 of which were registry files. I know nothing about registry files, and am not sure about whether it\'s safe to remove them. I also need help with the spybot thing as well. I hope I can get this fixed because it\'s getting slower and slower, I typed it all in, then went for a glass of milk, I drank it, then came back, only to find out that it was still typing out what I had typed, a full 90 seconds later.

Those objects are more than likely slowing your system down if they are in the registry. Every time I find something after a scan I delete it without question.  You shouldn\'t have to physically go into the registry, just tick the boxes after the search and click on the remove button. Ad-aware always creates a back-up file also just in case you may have any problems afterwards. I have never has any problems after deleting objects though.

Spybot should work in exactly the same way but may find objects that Ad-aware might miss.

Make sure you click on the check for updates option on both programs while you are online to make sure they are up to date.

I always assumed that deleting things from the registry would cause problems, I remember someone telling me that, not sure who it was though.

These are all the things it has found, is it safe to delete them?

I know it might seem like I\'m a dumb schitt, but I just want to make sure. It\'s better to be safe than sorry.

Delete them all, I had one of those CSS Hijack ones last week and it kept changing my homepage to something else. Just zap the buggers and reboot to see if you computer is any faster.

To delete them just click in the little box on the left of each entry to select them then click on the next/remove button at the bottom right.

SUCCESS!!!

Thank f0ck for that. That was really starting to piss me off.

Thanks for the help Kurt, much appreciated.

Now make sure you scan regularly, say once a week to keep those little buggers at bay!:D

Oh don\'t worry, I will be, I most certainly won\'t be going through all that again.
