favourites

[Guest]

I have three favourites folders that keep coming back even after I have
deleted them, everytime I start up explorer. Can anyone help me to get rid of
these. Also I have two toolbars that I dont want, they keep appearing
everytime I start explorer, can anyone help me get rid of them?

I would be extremely grateful

kind regards

You probably have been hijacked. Go to security.kolla.de and download
SpyBot Search & Destroy - this should help you get rid of those pesky
vermin

Hi,

That activity is usually caused by spy and ad programs being installed on
the system.

1) Install and run Adaware from www.lavasoft.de

2) Install and run Spybot from www.safer-networking.org

3) Install and run Spyware Blaster from
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

4) Turn on the native firewall or install a third-party one (a third party
firewall will notify you of outgoing traffic as spyware programs "phone
home", the native one won't).
