ive never had so much ad/spyware before. im usually careful with what i download so i dont know what happened, the only things ive installed lately was an update to winmx, a few analogx progs and something called DU Meter. im guessing it was that last one that did it. it added a bunch of crap to mozilla like those spyware proggies that highlight words and link them to sponsers. :angry: :fal:

I have to run that on mine. Haven't scanned my rig for anything since I installed xpro 3 months ago. I only have problems when others use my computer.

How do you know if you have spyware and how do you delete it?

Don't feel so bad, I ran this Thursday, and I had 167 on my laptop! :eek:

The news page the other day had a link to an article that gave instructions. I just followed it. Good luck!

Edit: Here (http://www.tweak3d.net/articles/spyware/) is the link.
