The Pikey Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 How do you get back or clean up your C:drive? I have been getting shit loads of fucking Spyware graemlins/doh.gif Even after I sweep, it takes away memory. I can't even run certain applications because of it. I keep getting a rundll32.exe application error when I try and open them. I already tried to defrag...didn't help. This Spyware shit is 10000x worse than spam mail. Another small item...I don't get the page "click" noise when I click on new webpages or go back. I'm not sure why that's stopped Thanks for any advice.

Buck531 Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 Format c: /q smile.gif . Probably the best bet is to back everything up and start over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major_Movit Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 Have you tried Adware 6.0? you can get it here and for the click noise on the browser... go to control panel and look in sounds. Make sure the "Start Navigation" has a sound selected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensan Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 I had the same problem recently. Apparently if you use kazaa or similar you may be under attack from a virus. CTRL/ALT/DEL and see if a process called sysupd.exe is running. If so, restart in safe mode and delete C:/WINDOWS/sysupd.exe, and then run your ad aware or whatever. Should take it all right off. My system was 1000x faster afterward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stallion Motorsports1647545491 Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Not trying to jack your thread but, On my new Dell I am always getting a Virtual Memory Error, or Virtual Memory is Too low Error. Then it says Windows is increasing the size of the file, but it usually locks up. It only happens when my computer is idle for a while. Any ideas on how to fix this? thanks, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pikey Posted May 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Update: I had some damn Twaintech bs on my computer that none of my sweepers would remove. I got rid of one of the files...but I'm not sure how to manually do the rest. I also have this JRaun Malware...under c:\windows\systems32\installer.exe None of my Ad/Spyware programs will remove it either...they just tell me it's high risk. Any more info would be much appreciated. Scott peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
