    Hey lads looking for a bit of advice please
    For the last few days if i double clicked anything on my desktop or a name on msn it would not work
    so i ran a superantispyware scan and found something called doubleclick.net
    anyway i deleted and my clicks are back
    i did some research and found they are owned by google

    is it harmful? should i stop using chrome as my browser?

    thanks

    I'm not sure if its a google company as i looked up their info and i found that:


    Ip: 216.73.93.8 Connection:Succeed Nation: USA - Colorado
    hostname: DOUBLECLICK-NET Company: Double Click, Inc.
    Adress: Double Click, Inc. 12396 Grant Street, Thornton e-mail: neteng@doubleclick.net phone:+1-212-271-8822

    Thats the website name.
    I did a little bit of research and i must say that doubleclick is an ad-ware is searches for the info on what websites you go on and after spam you with the advertisements it can be pop-up which jumps from the Msn icon - so that was the problem it was crashing your pc.

    And you really should use Google chrome its the most fastest and greatest web browsers.
