Post #1
I have constant popups and my Internet explorer window closes by itself when I try to access certain websites.

I don't know what to do

Even when I get rid of spywares and popups thru Ad-aware and Spybot they keep coming back again

Most importantly, how do i stop my Explorer from closing automatically???

Looks OK but are you still having pop ups?

If so please do this.

Please download vx2finder to your desktop from here http://www.downloads.subratam.org/VX2Finder.exe Start Vx2finder, then click on "Click to Find VX2.BetterInternet" and then click "Make Log" and copy and paste the entire contents of the log here.

Looks good :D :thumbup: I will watch this thread for a few days.

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. In my signature below is also a tutorial on how to harden IE, a good read and very helpful to stop these things in the future. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on.

Safe Surfing. :D
