GREAT JOB :thumbup:

Log looks good :D :thumbup: How is it running any issues?

You can delete the C:\!Submit folder. It is created by KillBox, and that is where its removals go.


Click Start> My Computer, select the Tools menu and then Folder Options, after the new window appears select the View tab…]
This time select the: Restore Defaults
Select: Apply, and click OK



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. 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. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing. :D
Post #35
Everything seems to be running great now.

I will download those programs you recommended. I do have a hardware router firewall and Norton Anti Virus protection.

When I run the Adaware and Spybot programs, can I safely fix all the items they flag as problems?

Can I reinstate the Tea Timer on Spybot?

Lastly can I safely delete the 2 Quarantined files in Adaware SE?

Thanks so much for all your time and help…

Yes as long as you run them per the instructions I posted. Be sure to keep them up-to-date.


Can I reinstate the Tea Timer on Spybot?

Yes :thumbup:


Lastly can I safely delete the 2 Quarantined files in Adaware SE?

Yes :thumbup:
