I downloaded a few programs to get of the toolbar but for some reason the website won't go away. I tried to restore my computer through windows but I think my new adware won't allow me to do that. ( I saw it blocked in one of the adware programs) Now that the toolbar is gone am I safe? I have used three different programs to verify that the trojan virus is gone.

how do I stop people from downloading thing from the internet. winguard works great for ie but not for firefox. I need something for firefox. I have set up the other users as limited users but they are still able to download stuff just not install it. I dont want all that garbage from peoples downloads on the desktop. I want to stop it before it downloads. I have also disabled the windows installer and prohibit user installs in group policy for extra security. Anyone have any ideas

I was wondering if Spybot Search & Destroy blocks spyware from getting into your computer or does it allow spyware to get into your computer and then it deletes it? Does Spybot have active Anti-Spyware shields? same question about Lavasoft Ad-Aware Se, does it have active anti-spyware shields? or does it allow spyware to get into your computer then delete them ? Also, which one is better?

I am in a hotel using their wireless internet connection. I did not have my firewall on. I had my iTunes opened and see that I have a shared user's music on my iTunes. Does this mean that someone hacked into my computer? If so, what should I do? Thanks for any assistance!

I have the password and use it to log on to the computer but want to stop the computer from asking me for the password. It started doing this about 9 months after I bought the computer from Dell. It is a Inspiron 2200. I think my daughter may have put it on so I wouldn't look at her email. HELP! I have tried everything...

The case that I am considering the password was obtained via a program that records all the key strokes on the computer. I also wonder which countries it is illegal in outside of USA.
