The infection continues

Grrrr. This frickin' spyware is making my computer freeze up. I was googling the damn thing this morning and someone on a message board said this and it succinctly sums up my feelings right now:

"It is getting to the point where I am thinking of hunting down the company CEO and slamming his balls in a desk drawer till it is taken off my pc."

You think we could get a law passed in Congress allowing this?

Ugh, I know how you feel. I use a Mac at home, but a spyware infestation on my work computer some months ago led to my computer freezing up and my Norton Anti-virus trapping 6 trojans. I really like your solution. *g*

I ended up downloading both Ad-aware and Spybot: Search and Destroy. It took both to clean it out. Then I switched my browser to Mozilla. Haven't had a problem since then.

Hope you get it cleaned out! :-)

Absolutely.

Honestly, shouldn't the invasion and destruction of your private property be a punishable offense?

Bastards.

Sorry, this spyware things sucks! You may have to channel your inner Lilah for your interrogation of the CEO. No one can bust a man's balls like she can!
