So, I got my computor back the other day, and, while pleased that it didn't have to be formatted, I was shocked at how much junk got on it in only about 10 hours of internet use for it.

Aside from the 23 viruses I had ( [img]tongue.gif[/img] ), I had 161+!!!!! things of spyware on my computor.(I assume it can't count past 161 [img]tongue.gif[/img] ). That's gotta be some record for maybe 10 hours of internet use. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

God sake. I think you need to use some protection [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Do you have a firewall? An AV scanner? Adaware? Spybot? etc.

I have none and I have been connected to the net for about 10days straight!

Let me guess...you went online without a firewall...

I had to do that once between installs of windows, and I was only on for 45 minutes and already the pr0n adds were flowing.

woah.. you sure are targeted

Quite correct, my good man! My PC has been banished from the internet for a while, anyways. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yeah, but you said you were online for 10 hours, if you go online THAT long without protection, i can only say that it's your own stupid fault. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Pff...before I knew what a firewall WAS I used the Internet for 3 to 4 years .

...probably why my last computer imploded.

I agree with Sigmar...

Only recently have I started getting problems, and so I switched to Mozilla, then Firefox... and now no problems again...

That's not really a record to be proud of...
