    Hey guys,

    Just wanted to let you know about a new website I put together to help out with removing spyware, adware, malware, etc..

    (Removed link)

    This might be a great post to sticky, I believe this website would be a good reference and a first step, would probably clear 90% of the problems.

    I made it easy and straight forward, didn't include Hijackthis and other utilities because of the increased complications if you don't know what you are doing, but it should be a good first resource!

    Thanks, and let me know what you think, anything I should add/change on the site?

    I'm not advertising, it's a free and helpful website, :confused

    Did you even take the time to look at it?

    I did and found some bad advice,

    Never turn System Restore off perminently, or at the start of a malware cleaning routine, at times if cleaning doesnt go to plan or a wrong component is deleted then the only route back is system restore, as its better to restore back even with an infected restore point than to go through a re-install.



    Free and helpful site, with google ads all over the place, those generate money via clickthroughs! what you may have to contend with is that you are posting your site on forums that are geared up for security and malware removal in the first place, plus many do not take kindly to your 1st post advertising your website.... some sites will react very aggresively to you basically spamming your link, so its always advisable to contact the site owners first, before posting your link as its good nettiquette to do this.

    Good point, I am changing this when I get home today.

    Yes, with google ads, kind of like this site (in every post)! What is the difference?

    Just trying to provide a helpful location to get people started, I haven't finished the last page yet, but it will have download links to tons of useful utilities.

    I don't see why you would say it's spam, I'm not selling anything and the page is honest.
