ibanezgfx Posted April 25, 2005 CID Share Posted April 25, 2005 i installed spybot and all the updates and whenever i run a check, it has an error. and i try to clean the stuff it finds and i get so many error popup things and it ends up freezing. i know a little about computers and im just trying to make my cable connection work right because im running at about 20% of the average customer. im trying to do all it says in the read this first post, but i dont know how to work half of the stuff.

cak46 Posted April 25, 2005 CID Share Posted April 25, 2005 You could try Ad-Aware from Lavasoft instead of spybot: http:// www.lavasoft.de Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peepnklown Posted April 25, 2005 CID Share Posted April 25, 2005 Spy-bot cannot clean everything and Ad-aware cannot clean everything so run both. If Spy-bot cannot remove something (try a search) for the item it could not clean and manually delete it. I would also run an online virus scan while you are in safe-mode.
