hi got a few porn diallers on my hard drive. Ive managed to delete a couple however I cant find the program files for many. Also when I connect to the internet my password, username and dial up number has been changed. Even if I remove it and type in my old internet numbers it still goes back to the porn dialler number!…

hi

got a few porn diallers on my hard drive. Ive managed to delete a couple however I cant find the program files for many. Also when I connect to the internet my password, username and dial up number has been changed. Even if I remove it and type in my old internet numbers it still goes back to the porn dialler number! Any ideas how I can stop this?

cheers
dave

go to http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910.html?part=69274&subj=dlpage&tag=button to download the free version of Adaware, install it and run it. Make sure you make it check for a latest reference file before running a scan. Should find and clean most of the rubbish on your hard drive.

Use AdAware. then SpyBot, then boot into safe mode and do it all again.

SpywareBlaster, adware, spybot, all updated with the latest updates should clear it. I also user XCleaner regularly too. Oh and AVG.
