ad ware doesn't seem to work for me. i keep it updated regularly and i still get those damn msn pop ups. one time i just finished scanning and after i clicked close a pop up popped up. great software eh?

filip04 · Mar 24, 2003

messenger popups are NOT to do with the software you have on your computer... open up command and type in net send localhost message.....

and here is how you turn it off
go into start > contol panel > administative tools > services and disable "messenger" also, right click it, into properties, and disable automatic start up... make it disabled... that should take care of them... muahahaha

Cool info. If you turn off messenger in admin tools, will messenger be gone after that, or just the popups? (communication channel for popups)

filip04 · Mar 24, 2003

that service, messenger has nothing to do with msn messenger if that's what you're asking....

and yes, once you disable messenger, you will no longer receive messenger "popups" - they're not really popups... it should be better described as broadcast messages

Thanks P4x4 i found around 29 files

i have disabled stupid messenger and i have just started using trillian and i love it

Before I scanned, I cleared my cookies/internet history/offline content (all from the I.E option panel), still found 38 files found- but half were in other user profiles.

Nothing amazingly nasty, all "data miners"- they won't find any gold in MY machine (motherboard traces don't count).

the only thing is i use msn messanger =(

I recommend spybot as well. Both detect a few things the other doesn't. It's a lil more aggressive so look carefully before pressing the "fix" button.

filip04 · Mar 25, 2003

like i said, disabling messenger service has nothing to do with msn messenger... i use msn messenger also, and i have the messenger service disabled

Hey Fil, know of any REALLY good popup eliminators? I use popup stopper and .... well.... anyway, any Ideas?

filip04 · Mar 28, 2003

funny that you ask me....

popupcop from www.popupcop.com get your 30 day free trial

- it is AWESOME in my opinion... - definitely worth the $19.95

although the trial version has a kinda-annoying thing, where it'll show up the "please register banner" once every few days... but yah - i love it

Is anyone else really annoyed that you have to click each
cookie in Ad-Aware 6 to get rid of it? What ever happened
to auto-selecting all at once, automatically?

filip04 · Mar 28, 2003

note: you CAN select all of it at once...

right click, hit "select all objects"

or clear your cookies through ie first

Penguin4x4 · Mar 28, 2003

Tec, right click to get a list of options,

Tecumseh · Mar 28, 2003
