But you haven't heard of NoScript and AdBlocker Plus?
P.S. What's a virus?

As silly as this sounds, watch him on a typical surfing night and see what he does.

I mention this as I had a friend whose computer got infected with a virus, and as he was debugging the machine, his daughter was watching over his shoulder.

A box from Norton popped up warning him that some attachment was a potential threat and was he sure he wanted to open it.

At this point his daughter chimes in and says "That stupid thing, again!  I had to disable it so I could read what my friends send me.. "

 

Poor guy..

I had to put a ah member into my spam folder as his computer was infected with some virus and kept sending me messages to go check out some web pages.  I make it a point to never open attachments/links from anybody.

On some exploits you don't even need to open them. I hope your friend gets his stuff fixed.

are horendus(sp) to give it a compliment. Hes 19, and about as good with a computer as a new guy to the game is on his first flight.

He had issues with his computer the other day, I ran a scan with malwarebytes in safe mode, found 3 items. I removed them. Was good for a couple days then yesterday he had the same issue. Ran another scan in safe mode again and found 3 more items. removed them. I know Skuzzy has some strict Regs on what his computer allows to pass through. Wondering how to set up something similar to what the Skuzzinator has, but not nearly as strict.


if you need a DxDIAG let me know, I'll see if i can get a screenie and post it. 

Get him a girlfriend, a slutty one, so he can forget about browsing for free porn.

ive told him to stay off a website if something pops up like "win a free 50" HDTV!". them are few and far between..but we all know they pop up every now and then. some on websites more then others...
