making smileys

[Astikali]

Everyone can make smileys in threads on eBay but me. They
just use and get a smiley. I don't Somewhere said
Paint wasn't installed. I think it is. I have Win XP and
use either AOL 9 or IE6. I have downloaded Smiley Central
and can only put them in emails. What am I doing wrong.
On the Internet they list keyboard codes but where do I
put them to make smileys. Help

Greetings --

To deal with issues caused by any sort of "adware" and/or
"spyware,"such as Gator, Comet Cursors, Smiley Central, Xupiter,
Bonzai Buddy, or KaZaA, and their remnants, that you've deliberately
(but without understanding the consequences) installed, two products
that are quite effective (at finding and removing this type of
scumware) are Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de and SpyBot Search &
Destroy from www.safer-networking.org/. Both have free versions.
It's even possible to use SpyBot Search & Destroy to "immunize" your
system against most future intrusions. I use both and generally
perform manual scans every week or so to clean out cookies, etc.

Additionally, manual removal instructions for the most common
varieties of scumware are available here:
