Whasup fam. Sorry it's been a while since i been in. My computer at home has contracted a virus from internet use and my internet moves extremely slow now. For some reason, all other sites work ok except for homrec. It takes about 5 mins just to get to the hip hop section. I'm on my work computer right now. I'm currently getting ready to move so i prolly won't be posting alot of new tracks till i get my setup up and running at the new crib. I hope yall had a great christmas. Holla!
 
DONT DL PORNO, if you really need it buy it form the corner store!
 
LOL. Naw it ain't even like that homie. First i kept getting alot of popups for some kind of "virus cleaner" then the internet would close out by itself. I ran adaware 50 million times and it's done nothing. I'm thinking about burning off important files and starting all over again. I'm deff canceling my internet before i move. Thinkin about getting dsl or something instead of the netzero i have :mad: .
 
what you need to do is this...

1. If your using something like Spybot, it won't get everything. CounterSpy will. Get that program. Sometimes adware was unintentionally installed, but you allowed it to be, so it runs as any other installed program. You might be able to go to control panel, add remove programs, and look in there too. I know stuff like When U Save will show up there. Also run norton or mcafee. I have norton, but i like macafee, and i also have 3 spyware removal tools, 1 from norton, then i have spybot, and counterspy. Adware Removal or whatever that program is called is a great one too. Adware & Counterspy will help you out a lot. On Spybot, you'll want to get into the advanced options, and then look at your startups to see exactly what is being run when you start up your computer... BTW, it would probably be best that you first off, update and get those softwares, and then, you restart your computer, disconnect from the internet, and run windows in safe mode. Also it really doesn't matter of what type of connection you have, but I think netzero did have some spyware/adware along with it back in the day... If you do have that Adware or whatever program, run counterspy, that program works great. It will get EVERYTHING lol. However, the BEST tool to get spyware out of your system, is a clean installation of the operating system.

So step 1: Get Counterspy
2. disconnect computer & restart in safe mode
3. run virus scan & adware tools
4. check your add/remove programs
5. use spybot in advanced mode, and check the start up stuff, and also check to see if everything is blocked in there, also there's the Tea-Timer, which does not allow jack shit to run unless you press ok lol. It's kind of annoying when your trying to access your email and it pops up, but everything is ran through you before running. Norton & Mcafee has similar things.
6. I even go as far as using Yahoo's anti-spyware tool.
7. Norton is included in the Yahoo toolbar for trial (might need it installed so u can also run that tool too).

Then you SHOULD be fine.... if it still gives you problems, come post up exactly what files are popping up.
 
Ya, I use FireFox a lot too. It seems faster and I don't get popups and all that bull... Can you even get updates for IE anymore. I can't find any for Mac...
 
I got the counterspy program. I'm glad i did!! I haven't had a chance to do a full run, but i scanned my registry and got rid of some adaware there. Finally, i can use task manager again!!! I think i do need some good registry cleaner software tho because i've had my comp for 3 years and have done alot of installing and uninstalling.
