check if you are down with viruses

 

[surikas]

yes. this is a virus or a spyware. scan your computer for viruses.

 

[amorey84]

yup

check destroy and i even format it a few time..internally and externally (bring it outside as external harddisk)
nothing could be done..
the only thing left is for me to do is change the browser to napster or something..what kind of virus attacking actually...still confuse

what are you referring to ? windows explorer or internet explorer ,

note ,you should not confuse to 2.

which AV did you use for the scan ?
most viruses are pretty easy to go about removing

 

[amorey84]

Internet explorer...

My mistake there...its internet explorer..scan it with AVG, Spyware Begone, Kapalsky, panda, ..nothing been found but it still popping up...

When does it start on it's own? Randomly or is there a certain time when it happens?

 

[amorey84]

last week..and been cleaning the hard disk and stuff but it still there..so i uninstall the iexplorer. hav to use new browser now.
i think every a few minutes it also happen when i'm not online and when i'm only open a folder..

Use Mozilla Firefox instead you will not be disappointed!

i like alot mozilla for that to avoid that kinda trouble andi think mozilla is built better then IE and the addons are better too i think

I use a smaller in size of browser...Opera..
