View Full Version : i think i have a spyware or something
i think i have a spyware or something. i really could use some help. when i open my internet browser it redirects my homepage to a warning box. this happened after my husband clicked on a link in myspace. the warning box says "w32.mzor.fx@yf is a virus...." it wants me to click ok to download "officially approved security software". i click on cancel, but the web page is addressed as hxxp:// safeiepage . com/. if i go to certain web pages i get redirected to a web paged addressed hxxp:// idnserror . com/. there is a link on top of the page that says "the page you are looking for is probably blocked by adware/spyware on your PC. Remove it with sysem doctor software. click here". i cannot get this off of my computer and spybot did not notice this at all. please help!!!

If you are having a similar problem, you should not necessarily rely on answers directed toward other posters in the Malware Removal (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) forum. This is because the help provided there is usually done on a case by case basis, based on the actual log entries and feedback posted by the individual poster.
