    Hey, this is sort of strange, u see i have cable internet and the past few days i noticed on my Windows task manager, than Iexplorer.exe (internet explorer) always has 2 applications running..which is out of ordinary, usually it only runs if i get on internet explorer, well it affects my whole computer, when i try to play cs:s, i get lag spikes, and lag pretty bad occasionally...any body have a clue whats going on???

    Download the following Program

    Once downloaded, run the file, then before clicking finish make sure Updating and running a full scan are checked then click finish.

    Once its done scanning click on one of the spyware's, then right-click and Select All Objects.

    Towards bottom right click Next, Now it will automattically remove all the selected items.

    Hope this works!

    Let me know if you have an issue during this or afterwards.
