i used spybot. adaware,
best thing i have used for killing bho's and browser hijacks is "hijack this"
download.com or majorgeeks.com and download it gets rid of tool bars dns hijacks and anny other crap IE HIJACKING ~! great tool ..
i used to use trend micros one day it pissed me off and i went looking and got avira , i crapped when it picked up on viruses the other missed ... ones i was to intelligent to open for a while after dloading them etc.
i used to use avira in a hp kayak booting from the scsi and pulling ide hard drives and slapping them in and scanning them ... that as i got tired of xp getting so corupted by malwae and 50 some viruses running at once you can not install a virus scanner ..so it worked
I can still remember when i worked on the idiots across the yards computer first and last time .. had to run back and forth frommy house and burn a few cd 's . walking back into the house "he" said you shouldnt a let him touch it he doesn't know what he is doing .. i said yeah next time i wont .. but now .. here 600 some od infected files 3 back doors running at the same time .virus city on windows moron edition . this is a guy that will install kazza on his computer and swear his pc is still ok ! rember kazza . save now.exe ???dns hijacks . bho's man that was wonderfull...not.
anny way then i started to run that p3 kayak all the time like for a few years .. it finaly gave up ..so i old school i was feeling boared i grab an old dual pentium pro @233mhz . 384mb ram win 2k off the pile it came.
i end up with dialers and viruses running like overnight . i cleaned and cleaned eaven fresh install still same crap .
then i remembered zone alarm . i am on dialup . well zonealarm found out 400+ hits in less then 8 hours . and no more viruses . i asked my isp he said yeah i tried to get rid of them . nothing works with a 2k box they know all the exploits . nothing i can do eaven with my iptables . i blocked whole continents . they still find routers to hijack. and proxy servers so i quite and just suggest a firewall on the clients end ..
hes right it does work .. xp's sp2 crap firewall is a joke but works better then none ... back to playing shadow warrior wanton on my vlb dos box .. yawn
