First i must tell all of you that my computer uses a HACKED version of microsoft. So all my stuff is what some might call... illegal...

So my mother thought it would be an aboslutly fantastic idea to install this microsoft update pack onto my computer, you know, for updating perposes.

AND KABOOM

well, my computer didnt explode, but i cant get on it. No flash, no internet .. no Ue...

So I can go on the UE using my moms computer i guess, but still, i got pwned

Also, i wont be able to go the UE as often, but ill still be mderatly active

:o What?! Too bad. I'm having some problems with my own pc, it's full of spyware, barely possible to view the UE without about 10-15 error messages and pop-ups :( Well, at least I can turn my pc on and use it to some degree.

Ouch! There may still be hope... some hacker somewhere should have a fix soon, if you can find it.

It's reasons like this that I am the sole tech support for my family. That and nobody touches my 'box' unless I say so, which is never.

@Gratwohl: Do a google search for an Anti-spyware program called Spybot. It's free and should get rid of quite a large number of those annoying pop-up programs. ;)

Bloodfang is correct. I've got the same program Spybot installed on my home PC and it really does the business.

Of course at work I can rely on all sorts of corporate firewalls to protect me as I visit the UE :P

Good luck Vorg!

Lol, as predicted, here I am. Yeah, use Mac or Linux and you won't have the problem ... if not wanting to pay anything (my assumptions since using a cracked CD) you can LEGALLY download and install Linux for free, or even order a free CD from Ubuntu.

As far as spyware on your Windows computers... Thrask showed you Ad-Aware which is good, but it helps to also run Spybot Search & Destroy They each catch things that the other wouldn't, and Spybot is 100% free with all it's features while you only get the Scan with the free version of Ad-Aware.

*Looks at his own computer* I have both of those and Norton. Must be why I have not got a single virus in like the 2/3 years of having this computer (Yes I do use windows and I have both IE and FF but use FF like 99.9% of the time) and we only got the one virus in about 3/4 years of using the old family one and my brother was to thank for that.

Ahum, I had this problem about a year and a bit ago and this is how you solve it: go to Add/remove programmes, uninstall Windows SP2.

I do NOT advocate using illegal software, but I got my machine banged together by an Indian bloke in the local shopping centre and it was rather too cheap to be true... I got an upgrade a few months later and got genuine windows XP installed on the cheap (I love it when new OSes come out, the old ones are normally just as good with all the free bot-busters you can get, and the price plummets)

If it's not the SP2, just go to add/remove programmes, and go to the Windows components function and just select the last patch and exterminate it.

I would highly recommend that you not run Windows XP without SP2 ... you may not know it but your computer has likely been compromised. SP2 was released because several security flaws were discovered in XP and becoming well known to the underground communities. It is said that an outdated machine is compromised on average within 5 minutes of being connected to the internet... you do the math.
