I have a question concerning the site.

Fri Dec 03, 2004 3:10 am

Read the FAQ and what not, and I dont see an answer there. I seem to be having trouble with spyware, just like back in the summer when I needed my hard drive wiped. I wanted to know whether or not it is possible to get an infection of ANY kind from any part of the site. I was wondering because I cant seem to find where it comes from. If you can answer to the part about if I can get an infection from pink pt or know of a VERY good spyware removal and protection program, please reply or drop me an e-mail at mailto:elmidgeto@hotmail.com for those that did not know. If you cant answer my question, thanks anyway for taking the time to read meh post. Thanks. =D

P.S. I'm also looking for a data shredder too. I REALLY dont like being spied on 8)

I'm not even going to go into the spyware debate, as I've said my piece too many times to count :P

But you can download Adaware and Spybot from http://www.download.com - they're both highly recommended. Just make sure you update the reference files before scanning.

make sure you update your definitions before scanning. If you're using IE I recommend these settings:

Go to Internet Options > Privacy tab > Advanced button > Check Override Handling, set first party cookies to accept and third party cookies to block. Check Always allow session cookies.

oh and get google toolbar/blocker
