There's nothing like Spybot Search&Destroy. :euro:

This is irrelevant to tech and all that. But I just wanted to compliment on the update user-profile. It looks a lot different than the old one, but I'll get the hang of it. Thank you.

I was stuck with my Windows XP Zune Theme for some weeks and I decided to change it back to Windows XP default. Oddly enough, the Windows Media Center Theme came up. It was the Royale theme for XP. It was odd. I never recalled downloading such a theme. I'm assuming this theme came with Windows...

I just recently installed AdAware 2008 this afternoon. I updated and plan to run a full scan after a Spybot scan. I've updated Spybot (5.21.08). Problem is that Spybot came up with a message telling me that, it has detected that AdAware is installed and may cause compatibility issues. I have...

This may be a dated issue, but I just wanted this to be clarified. http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=25774 With Java 6 Update 6, I attempted to use Trend Micro's Housecall. However, upon initiating, the Java... I was told to confirm to proceed. However, I took a look at Certificate...

I'm considering "migrating" to back from AVG 8.0 to 7.5. Considering the heavy system memory usage by "avgrsx.exe" by AVG 8.0, I think it might be worth the try.

I am using an outdated version of a Media Player called InterVideo WinDVD for VAIO (it came with my reformat). It is outdated, because the latest version is version 8. I would like to know how this dated version may affect my computer. Also, will I "pick" up any baddies (viruses, malware, etc.)...

I was just wondering... I have Spybot-SD's TeaTimer, and WinPatrol 2008 active simultaneously. Will it cause conflicts if I install BoClean from Comodo by the way? If not then I'll only have WinPatrol Plus and BoClean on. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I just tried editing my XP account profile picture, and all of a sudden a window pop-ups up. It says "Internet Explorer Script Error". It also asked me should I continue writing scripts. Can anybody tell me what this means? Maybe the cause of it too? I would like to know what the "scripts" are...

I have reformatted my Windows XP Home to start clean for Windows XP SP3 on April 29th. However, when I installed AVG Free 8.0 and ZoneAlarm free (latest edition), my Windows Security Center does not recognize the programs. All I see now is a red colored "shield" on my taskbar. It results remain...

Although this topic may sound outdated... I just wanted to know. I'm tempted to purchase Home Premium for home use... and with all the enhancements and performance improvements, I'm just planning to switch to Vista. What do others think? :santa:

Just a quick question. Say for example, you plug your "clean" flashdrive into a computer infected the Virtumonde, Smitfraud, and several other rootkits and trojans. You copy a image from the infected computer to your thumbdrive. If you would plug it into your a clean computer, would the...

It is becoming a annoyance these days :sad:. It is sad to say this... but TeaTimer is unable to shutdown at every computer shutdown. Once I attempted to shutdown, a window pops up saying TeaTimer is not responding and I was forced to force close the non-responsive TeaTimer. It always said: Acess...

After completing a full scan with AVG 8.0 Free, more than a dozen registry came up. However... the threat counter was at zero. In the results screen, I look up the dozen of registry keys. In the details tab, it told me that it was a potentially dangerous object. HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Internet...

I would sometimes confuse the computer terms memory and RAM. A description and their differences would be most appreciated. >:D

From how I saw it, Java 6 Update 6 was released yesterday on the official Java Website. However, today Update 5 was back for download. It seemed to... drop a version. Has anyone notice? Btw, I still have Update 6 from yesterday on my computer. :sad:

"Access violation at address 004B6BE9 in module 'TeaTimer.exe'. Read of address 00000010." Apparently, this window popped up when I tried to restart my computer after running Teatimer for the first time. There was no OK button in the middle of the window... just blank with the message on top...

I'm frustrated and P.O.ed. :sad: Why in the world is shell32.dll, ntoskrnl.exe, and hosts listed as changed in AVG 7.5? Any help would be appreciated.

What are data base files exactly? I tried to burn files to a disc and it told me that a .db (data base) file was attached to what I was burning or something. I do not have the message in front of me anymore. The OS told me that if I continue copying the .db file may be lost but the contents will...
