A DP user just directed me and my computer is stuffed!

    I just got directed to this site by a DP member. And as soon as the site loaded, this programme loaded and installed. Now my computer has automatic spyware backgrounds and random pop ups.

    Anyone know how to fix this without purchasing a $200 spyware software?

    :mad:

    formating your PC would be the last thing you could do

    I know this sounds silly, but by formatting my computer? I have done it before, but forgot.

    Also should i save all my files on a temporary disk drive.

    Thanks Everyone!

    I just downloaded google spyware. Didn't do anything.

    The spyware still exists. I can operate the internet. But these functions don't work:

    1: the background is automatically a spyware background, and i can't remove it.
    2: when i click on a link from a search engine, it takes me to a url called go.google.com or something. And its an advertizing site.

    This is really advanced. After 4 different spyware tools im in trouble. And i don't want to format my computer, because of all the info i will loose.

    Any help is awesome.
