first off im sorry if this is in the wrong place O.o
still getting used to the forum.

but i was trying to watch erm...well porn off the net, and this thing came up saying i had to down load it, but it was an addware virus, (for virus software)

ive tryed using norton 2006 to get rid off it but its still in my programs list when i go to "add or remove programs" and when i try to remove it it reactivates it.

I've rebooted my computer to a previous "check point" so its contained again. but im just wondering if you guys (and girls) knew which software would be best to get rid of it.
Or what i have to do to kill the damn thing. ive tryed running the scan again. puting the file into quantine the file, then trying to delete it but nothing seems to work.
thanks ^^

PS- sorry about the spelling O.o

Try for AVG anti-spyware or A-squared free, they are two of the better programs. http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/

Adaware.

Only download porn in file formats that can't contain hidden agendas.
