hubby dropped my computer, am now on the old one. everytime i go on the internet [ well for last 12 hours] the home page is a large stop sign, saying -READ THIS, MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER PROVIDED BY FREESERVE. then loads of pop ups and things trying to download. i think it is trying to get me to download something to stop this happening. but my being a bit dim with computers, and wary about what i might be doing i am stumped. can anyone help or advise, sue. |

Sue.....see the thread on the TIPS board "1 Stop Routine PC Maintance." There are two programs listed there, ADAWARE and SPYWAREBLASTER that you need to download, install, and run. The computer you're using is loaded with spyware and it needs to be removed. J :) |
