Yeah my dad was being a dumbass and installed some search bar things on his comp, now he has a bunch of porn adware. He wants me to fix it.....i tried microsoft anti-spyware, and it didnt work. I think hes ****ed now because whenever i go to open up the net it loads a porn page....so...awkward situation....need help please!
 
You've got a browser hijacker.

Download Ad-Aware, update it and run it.

If that doesn't work, there are some other programs that might help, but I forgot the name of those :o
 
Microsoft's suck. Get Spy-bot and Ad-aware and run them both; plus, they're free!
 
No, Microsoft Antispyware has been excellent in my experience. Only Microsoft product that doesn't suck... besides their vacuum cleaners :laugh:
 
Ad-Aware, Spybot, Microsoft Anti-Spyware, and C-Cleaner (Crap Cleaner)

Your computer will be better than ever
 
A search bar should show up in the add/remove program files in Control panel.
 
That's alot like this cleaning product here in AUS

"Try Easy-off bam!

Bam! And the dirt is gone!"

I'm onto you, Sulks.
 
Get Hijackit.

It alows you to delete startup registry keys so you can delete the browser hijack and be done with it.
 
alternatively start his comp on safe mode and run microsoft anti. check for definition updates and then run a scan.

Welcome to my world. Except with me, it's not 'cause of spyware :naughty:

Sorry - it was too obvious.
