    yeah so I tried to get this bs off my comp, with every damn program they have!!!!! doesnt work!!!! I think I downloaded like 30 different spyware removal programs!!!!! guess what they dont do a F@#ki^& thing! just waste space.Yeah so I learned a very valuable lesson...... DO-NOT-LOOK-UP-PORN! I am sooo sooo sooo tired of spyware that I am about ready to go back to coal and granite slab! the thing that would make me feel better would be to get ahold of one of these bastards that create spyware and squeeze their neck untill their faces turned a bright blue! thay are more annoying than these fukin rag heads that we are dealing with...... please help! thanks

    If you download 30 programs, you probably downloaded programs that only claim to help, but actually install spyware. Heres a read for you, I especially like my line in it that reads "Don’t surf questionable websites. Free porn is an oxymoron. There is no free porn! When they get done with you, you may have dialers and browser hijacks installed, maybe even random popup ads. Sure, you didn’t hand over your credit card, but you’re going to pay."

    hey thanks for the quick response. but I have ad-aware and spybot. the problem exactly is that my home page keeps changing, via a browser hijack. I am also getting a c:\windows\system32\pxzi.exe that wont go away as well. I tried some of those other downloads but they seem not to help but for only a few min. Thanks

    Where are you stuck? I assume at the beginning?

    Start, run, type msconfig, and select diagnostic boot, I assume.

    Chappo, I'm not sure that Camo has the Only the Best hijacker issue. At least not yet. I think it would be a good idea for Camo download Hijaak This from here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html

    And read the instructions here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/vb/showthread.php?t=35407

    If you cannot understand all the stuff on the HijaakThis log then just see the info after the line where it says "What to do:"

    Make sure you shut down all applications then run HijaakThis, save its log, and that will bring up a notepad session with the log in it. Hit CTRL-A to copy all lines. Now connect back here to MG's and start a new message. Hit CTRL-V in the message box to paste everything into the message.

    ok well I tried to restore and it wont let me? I tried to pick a previous date and it does nothing. I also tried to go to a previous month and it wont let me. I am experiencing some serious problems with sound ( has alot of static) and pics and videos are fuzzy looking kind of like when you turn the T.V.to a channel that doent work(except it is in color) for example the picture next to my name I cant see, just all fuzzy. I think that I really fu*ked this time can anyone remotly connect? :rolleyes:

    Have you download, installed, UPDATED and run both Ad-aware and SpyBot S&D as requested by the thread I pointed you too. If not, please do so. If you did run them, what did they find and did you have them fix it.

    Run this too: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp
    make sure you check the Auto Clean button.

    Download CrapCleaner and give it a run. Just run it and on the Windows tab (you'll see when you run it) leave the defaults and click Run Cleaner. Download it here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4191.html

    Next post a HijaakThis log.

    Why do you think you need new hardware? Did you really physicallt break something in your PC?
