browser helper finder.....

[Tom Gahagan]

Posted this earlier and realized that my system date was a month behind!
lol... so here it is with the correct date!

Hi all......

A couple of months ago some of you recommended so excellent software (free!
) to scope out browser helpers. I did not make a copy of the files and
the original post is no longer on the server. Could you please re-post your
recommendations.

Thanks
Tom Gahagan

One is Spybot Search and Destroy

another is Hijack This.
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/index.html
use with caution because it lists anything that is not a normal part of IE,
including valid addins.


or CWShredder

Also there's quite a list of tools here:

Thanks Crash.....

I already use this product and as good as it is.... it does not get some of
the hijacks that the programs Steve recommends.

I'm about to cut my teenagers hands off if they don't stop downloading!
(not really... so no calls to children and family services please!)

Anyway.... Thanks to all!
