RE: [UC] Spyware Warning

[Tony Lapp]

Hi Joe and everybody else,   Ad-Aware is great.  In the Inquirer Tech section and a whole host of other places that I’ve seen, those “in the know” have suggested running both Ad-Aware and another freebie, Spybot-Search & Destroy.  (Lovely name, eh?)   Anyway, here’s the links to both Ad-Aware and Spybot for anyone on the listserv who’s interested:   Spybot <http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html>   Ad-Aware <http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910.html?part=69274&subj=dlpage&tag=button>   Wishing you all freedom from all kinds of nasty “ware”.   Tony Lapp Beaumont Ave   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe Clarke Sent: Sunday, November 14, 2004 6:44 PM To: University City Subject: [UC] Spyware Warning   Recently I found an extra toolbar appearing on my internet explorer.  It turned out to have been installed by a GAIN publishing piece of invasive software.  I found this to be creepy and was really angered by it.  I installed some free adware which eventually removed it. Has anyone else on this list experienced this problem?  The free software, which was recommended by a tech support person, is Ad-Aware SE personal.    Joe Clarke Cedar Park       Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp - or what's a heaven for?   Robert Browning   (1812 - 1889)
