Bad behaviour

hello,

I have been reading a website called Butterflies & Wheels for many months.
Suddenly I cannot contact it, I get an error message by 'Bad Behaviour'
telling me I have a virus or something.

I have Norton and I dont think I have any viruses.

I suspect that 'Bad Behaviour' is reliable, and is finding something
suspicious on my registry.

The Bad Behaviour page has an automatic removal option for the problematic
entries.

Can I trust it ?

Has anyone else met 'Bad Behaviour ' ?

Help pls

Before messing with Bad Behaviour download and run this and see if anything
ugly turns up.

Sounds to me as if this "Bad Behaviour" might actually be the problem,
not the solution. I would do as suggested above. Since it sounds as if
you never installed this "Bad Behaviour" why do you think you can trust
a pop-up window that comes up out of nowhere. Go to the malwarebytes.org
page, download the program, run that.

Hi and thanks.

I did what you suggested and the malware prog did find 2 suspicious
entries. I deleted them, rebooted, but no change.

Thanks anyway

Information on this program is scarce.
Can you do a system restore to a point before this happened?

Hi again, before I try a system restore it would help if I knew for certain
the problem is at my end. Could I ask you to try to connect to 'Butterflies
& Wheels' pls & see if you can get through?

Thanks

hi

I edited the registry as advised by 'bad behaviour' and the problem does
seem to have gone away. The registry key was something to do with ""
Mozilla"". Editing the registry was scary, my pc froze afterwards, but seems
Ok after a hard boot.

Thanks again fir the help
