HAHA i just cleaned my computer of spyware and geez there was a ton of stuff. a whopping total of 341 items!!! but i feel great now. its actually utilizing all of its 256 mbs of memory.

I got so pissed I wrote a VB program to delete the stuff…

I discovered progs like this a while ago. Lifesavers.

…goes to get some candy

Anyways, yeah. I think I’ve just converted from lavasofts.

Why?

Cause the first time I ran Ad-Aware it froze. And the second, and the third.
it eventually did the job, but I think it was overloading from the gargantuan amount of spyware I collect.
:stuck_out_tongue:

i just scanned my system with spybot… it got things lavasoft didnt… thanks fez :beam:

I downloaded Sygate Firewall a while back, and it conflicted with my OS (98) and said that teefer.vxd and other files had been deleted from my system… after a lot of fuss, i reinstalled the program and did a fresh uninstall and that did the trick, i am not downloading that companies software anymore. :confused:

I have Kazaa lite = no spy ware
