Spybot Problems

Hi!

When I run AdAware and Spybot, I would only have a couple of items show up. But now, I suddenly have a lot in Spybot.

Does someone know what these particular ones are, and possibly how I got them?

(Other than the computer being at the fix-it shop for driver updates due to gaming problems, and installing more RAM, now at 1GB) that's the only thing that I can think of that's different about the computer.

I've looked at the thread with all the points about spyware, etc,. but I find it confusing and more than what my computer skills/knowledge are. I'm not that confident yet, lol.

Just wondering for a general direction in which I should be heading, (eg. Different Spyware?AdWare program?)

Thanks!

have you immunised ?
go to spybot and click immunise

 

Thanks!

I opened Spybot and clicked on "Immunize".
It says, "All known bad products are already blocked".

 

all i can say is do the steps outlined in the start pages

 

I'm not too comfortable yet with all that stuff in the startup pages and my computer know how. But, I will definitly try cleaning my cookies, and checking out that link.

Thanks for your replies,
Very much appreciated!
