Castle cops seems to be a fantastic forum Inferno. Thanks again for steering me there. And in case you have not read my other posts, think I have won a round with Dell - they are sending out a technician to replace my hard drive!!!! So all issues on hold for now. happydance

I don't want to post a new topic because it's not game related but can spyware/adware cause your internet history list to be loaded with pretty bad internet sites even though you haven't even been there?

Just came across this site, thank you very much, inferno!
I marked the links for reading (as my English is limited, it will take some time..)
But good to know where to get real answers and not just advertisements

Yes --- most certainly it can if you have certain spyware or adware installed on your system/. It can also happen if you havew a trojan horse or worm .
I suggest that you run an anti adware /spyware program. in addition to "hijack This form castle cops.
To learn how to remove these pests check out the castle cops forum.

I have my Yahoo & MSN popup blockers on all the time. I also have McVee Security Centre (The latest version). I also delete cookies and files after every internet session especially now I am on Broadband, as I have a fairly new computer which I do not want to go haywire. My question is am I protected enough or do I need to do more. Also I have a game which isn't installing properly and have been advised to switch off my anti virus is this safe?

I have wireless connections for my Laptop and DSL for my Desk Top ---

If I shout down my TSR programs when playing a game --- I disconnect from the wireless and then reconnect and then restart my systems.

If you are connected to the internet you should not shutdown you protective systems.
