wesbed Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 I want to touch his beard. Am I a beard toucher? Quote
RDK Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 File under: too much information! ***** Beri, I don't think you have to go to such extreme measures (canceling credit cards and stuff). Most of the spyware/malware is annoying and disruptive, tracking cookies and and altering your browser, etc., but I've never heard of it lifting cc info or getting past encrypted passwords. Quote

7/4 Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 The Beard Soaker, perhaps? Hey, as long as it's OK with Billy G. ...and don't feel obligated to tell us what happened unless we all read about it on AP on line first. The you can tell us your side of the story, unless your lawyer won't let you. Quote

Claude Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 There are different degrees of dangerousness in adware - spyware - trojans. If you don't tell what it was exactly, nobody will be able to help you. Spyware may track the website you are browsing (to "persononlize" the ads it is sending you), but it won't log your keyboard to get your credit car info (which should not be saved on your PC) or passwords. Adaware also find cookies which will tell the owners of cooperating websites (which then use the same cookies) which of the websites you have browsed. Normally cookies are only sent to the website which created it (like this board for example), so it's not a privacy problem. Quote
wesbed Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 I'm thinking I might buy a new toaster, replace the exhaust system on my car, donate to Organissimo, look at the latest airline schedules, and enjoy a night on the town. Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 If you run AdAware and it finds malware and then you clean it up but it's still there after a re-boot, you've got a virus, a download Trojan virus actually. Download and run Spybot (link) in addition to AdAware. Spybot just might remove the Trojan but there's no guarantee. McAfee seems capable of getting rid of it as well. Norton is not so good at it. Your best bet is to run System Restore and get your computer back to a date before the infestation. BTW, the only time you should worry about passwords is if a keyword logging program is detected. Keyword loggers are programs that keep a file that records everything you type on your keyboard, including passwords and credit card numbers. They're nasty buggers. Later, Kevin Quote
