BrowserHelper?

Yesterday my computer started spouting notices at me informing me that "BrowserHelper.dll" has succeded. I have no idea what this means and they pop-up at a rate of about 100 per min for the first couple min, then seem to slow down, but will return with avengence at seemingly random moments. Does anyone know what this could be and how I could get rid of it? It is slowing the computer down a considerable amount, making it nearly impossable to use (it's taken me over an hour to get to this site to even write this)

Sounds like you got some bad spyware. Try downloading a spyware removel tool like spy subtract.

Hi Emily,

Yesterday my computer started spouting notices at me informing me that "BrowserHelper.dll" has succeded. I have no idea what this means and they pop-up at a rate of about 100 per min for the first couple min, then seem to slow down, but will return with avengence at seemingly random moments.

Download the utility CWshredder:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip

Unzip - close *all* instances of IE & OE, hit the executable and
follow
the prompts.
You can also download Hijack This from here:

http://www.mjc1.com/files/merijn/hijackthis.exe

Go here:
http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/
For instructions on how to use it; you have to post the log it
produces so experts tell you what is good and what is malware


Try downloading, installing and updating the
spyware removers from the links below. Run both of them.

Spybot S&D

If these don't correct the problem, then get yourself a copy of
BHODemon, available at
http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm .
It does not need installing - simply unzip and run the EXE program. It
is easy to use. It will find the hijackware DLL files, and give you
the ability to disable them.

Hope this helps.
