View Full Version : why didn't it catch these?
SpywareBot (which i first thought was SpyBot) caught
- pointroll (jimATads.pointroll
- imnworldwide (jimATimnworldwide
- 2o7 (jimATmsnlivefavorites.112.2o7
and an "unknown browser helper object" at hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\browser helper objects
(but what?)
but SpyBot (which i bought) does not seem to know how to remove these.
What can i do?
:sad: SpywareBot found an "unknown browser helper object" at hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\browser helper objects - how can i identify, find and remove it (without having to buy SpywareBot, too)?
SpyBot complained about these:
•Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter.FirewallDisableNotify (1 entry)
•Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter.AntivirusDisableNotify (1 entry)
but they look very like something which Microsoft put (and wants) there.
What are these and should i do something about them?
but SpyBot (which i bought) does not seem to know how to remove these.
What can i do?
