I somehow managed to get this virus-like ad on my system
and can not get rid of it. It seems to be divided into
many parts and as soon as I get rid of one, another takes
over. AdAware 6.0 finds it but doesn't get rid of it. I
have ZoneAlarm running and also the WindowsXP built-in
firewall. Neither stops it. I have emailed the company
(Casino on Net) to stop the ads but they claim it's not
their fault and blame it on a marketer they were using at
one time.
Regardless, even right now if I click on Search in IE, I
get THEIR search bar - not mine. Their search bar has
default locations for online casinos, viagra sales, etc.
I've got 2 kids that I don't want playing around with
that junk. Can ayone tell me how to purge this stuff from
my system?
