Welcome to the Remove Spyware Section - Eugenef.com
Free Nature Photography
Have you ever gone to a site, and so many pop-ups appear
that you feel like your going to explode? Well there is
a fix for everything. I have been fixing computers for
a few years now, and the majority of my work, of what
I do to fix people’s computers will be posted here.
Now I myself run about 8 or more programs weekly. This
is very important, even if you don’t surf the net
that often. Spyware has gotten so much out of control,
that this is the only option, we as web surfer have. Now
please understand that you need to do this under your
own will. This website takes no responsibility for any
of your actions. These are only recommendations. |
| |
Well first of all, what is Spyware? |
| Well mainly spyware are small software that runs in
the background of your computer collecting information.
These programs use that info which they send back to numerous
amounts of companies, to see what websites you visit and
so forth. Also a lot of times these programs will activate
the web and pop-ups will appear without you even surfing
the net. Another big problem is that sometimes these spyware
programs will load other software onto your computer,
just by opening a pop-up. |
| |
Pop-Ups Attack |
| If you haven’t noticed by now, Pop-Ups are one
the main sources of spyware. Well the only effective way
I know of preventing 90 percent of pop-ups is by installing
the following software: Google
Toolbar. This program has an option which will prevent
pop-ups from occurring (90 percent of the time). Now the
toolbar does have to be part of your internet explorer,
but a small price to pay to have those annoying pop-ups
removed. |
| |
Time To Clean |
| Now the next step is to remove everything in the temp
folders, where a lot of times spyware programs sit. (The
process is the same in all versions of windows, just search
for those 2 folders) |
::Windows XP::
My Computer --> Local Disk (C :) (Wherever windows
is located) --> Temp (remove everything possible
in that folder) --> (Go back to C:) click on Documents
and Settings --> (Click on the current user that
you are logged in as) --> (Go to tools at the top
--> folder options --> View Tab --> Click on
the circle next to “Show hidden files and folders”
--> Press OK) Press F5 --> Click on “Local
Settings” --> (remove everything in the following
folders: “Temp” and “Temporary Internet
Files”, DO NOT REMOVE THESE FOLDERS (If certain
files cannot be deleted, try deleting other files)
|

Windows Update |
| I know it's annoying to update windows every time there
is some kind of little patch, but they actually help.
Please visit the windows download site: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
Make sure to install every patch required. |

What's Running on My Computer? |
| Many of the spyware we have on our computers
are currently running. Some may ask as to how these
programs even start without doing anything. Well if
you go to the following specification, you will be able
to answer that question: The first step is to go to
the Start Button, Run, & "regedit." Please
be extremely careful when entering this section, only
delete things you know for a fact, otherwise don’t
touch them. Next, double click on "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"
--> SOFTWARE --> Microsoft --> Windows -->
CurrentVersion --> Run.
|
| There you will see every program that starts when you
computer loads windows. Delete the programs you know for
a fact you never use. Please be very careful as to what
you delete, do not delete any file that has a data address
anywhere near the Windows folder. When you are done, simply
restart your computer. |
| |
Ready For the Programs? |
| Now its time to really kill those spyware programs by
downloading spyware removers. There are about 10 or more
programs out there, the ones I would recommend are listed
below for you to download. |
| Please run as many of these as possible, which should
solve most of your problems. If you have any specific
