• Welcome Guest, to the Spybot Forums! It's 2025, and we just upgraded our forum software.

    Today is Safer Internet Day, and with our new forum, you can finally use passkeys to login. That was about time!

    Of course, you could ask if a forum is still useful, with so many social media networks out there where you might already have an account, and met a lot of users. You can now use your login from some of those networks to log in here. And by posting here, your question and data is stored on our servers and not automatically shared with a whole social media network.

    We'll also start using the forum for small bits of information, announcements and more again.

Now What?

A window opened on the desktop saying that a Browser Hijacker had been found and a value deleted, and it seemed that this might be a problem. How do I get rid of that particular hijacker? The window doesn't allow me to deny the change. It only has allow change as an option, but I'd like to remove that brower hijacker. What should I do? When I close the window, it just opens again.
 
a little more information please

What program is opening the window, What is the name of the hijaker...

Baring that information, run your spyware detector program/s and see if it detects anything...

make sure all programs you can close are closed. press Alt+Ctrl+Delete to bring up "Task Manager" check the programs tab and see if you can close the window from there, if not see if it is listed in the prosesses tab.


:cool:
