Pop up blocker not successful anymore - resources dangerously low
My pop up blocker doesn't seem to be doing the job anymore. Programs keep
loading on my computer and ads appear all over the screen. I keep getting a prompt that says my resources are dangerously low and I cannot figure out why. I am not running much of anything except AIM and Outlook Express yet it shows other things running i.e. rundll 32, n32rmd, intdel_2, stimon, viewmgr, loadqm and A. What are these and how do I get rid of them. I have gone into Install/Remove programs and removed everthing unnecessary. HELP Please |

1) Download the following three items...
Trend Sysclean Package http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp Latest Trend signature files. http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp Adaware SE (free personal version v1.05) http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ Create a directory. On drive "C:\" (e.g., "c:\New Folder") or the desktop (e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder") Download SYSCLEAN.COM and place it in that directory. Download the Trend Pattern File by obtaining the ZIP file. For example; lpt253.zip Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as SYSCLEAN.COM. 2) Update Adaware with the latest definitions. 3) If you are using WinME or WinXP, disable System Restore http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDoc...SysRestore.htm 4) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode 5) Using both the Trend Sysclean utility and Adaware, perform a Full Scan of your platform and clean/delete any infectors/parasites found. (a few cycles may be needed) 6) Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform using both the Trend Sysclean utility and Adaware 7) If you are using WinME or WinXP,Re-enable System Restore and re-apply any System Restore preferences, (e.g. HD space to use suggested 400 ~ 600MB), 8) Reboot your PC. 9) If you are using WinME or WinXP, create a new Restore point * * * Please report back your results * * * Dave "ATurner" wrote in message ... | My pop up blocker doesn't seem to be doing the job anymore.

After you have followed David's suggestions, you may also need to use Hijack This:
Download, unzip, and run Hijack This from one of these locations: http://computercops.biz/downloads-cat-14.html http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloads31.html http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads...HijackThis.exe Unzip to a folder *other than* your Desktop or the Temp folder, double-click HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that, save the log somewhere you can find it (Desktop, My Documents, or similar). Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so do NOT fix anything yet. Copy the log files and paste them into a new post at: http://forum.aumha.org/viewforum.php?f=30 In your post, please state your problem clearly and what you've done so far to fix it. The folks there will tell you what to remove. See the "housekeeping" they ask you to complete before you post your log: http://aumha.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4075 A tutorial for using Hijack This is located he http://tomcoyote.com/hjt/ and an in-depth tutorial is he http://aumha.org/a/hjttutor.htm -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "ATurner" wrote in message ...
