Darth Andrew Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 ? What do you mean? Popups? The only ads I've seen make up the border on the right side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leviathan Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Scar', you should use WebWasher. In effect, this (free) software allows you to block all pop-up and pop-under windows, remove "skyscraper" advertisements (Or other Flash animations), stop JavaScript, Java or VBS-based scripts, prevent modifications of your browser, etc...

Joshi Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Or just use Firefox with the Adblocker addon, I don't even see the border ads anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leviathan Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Yes, it is one of the means to remove those "skyscrapers"... (Nevertheless, if I were you, I'd try WebWasher : It is rather efficient. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuuki Posted September 10, 2005 Author Share Posted September 10, 2005 sry guys, it was the computer network. they're spyware clogged up all on it, i confused it with the previous problems that these forums had ^_^;;; yeah, i COULD use some software IF i had a computer of my own to use right now :sob: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 If it's a matter of spyware, just download and use: Spybot: Search and Destroy Lavasoft Ad-Aware Use them both, if the computer doesn't belong to you, force the people they do belong to use those and run a scan to get rid of said spyware as they reaslly shouldn't have it on their system. That should help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuuki Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 yeah yeah yeah problem with that is is that for some reason ppl who run the computers here, are actually smarter then what most take em for. they run 2kpro, which imho is more secure then xp (for number of reasons, but i dont want to get into a discussion about, imho), they pretty much secured everything to be written to the HD, and prevented any executables to be ran (cus obvioulsy adminstrator mode isnt on) so in conclusion, i cant install any of that anyway stuck with IE and it was my PC, i would of had those on for the first thing (outside of my needed drivers of course ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leviathan Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Strange paradox : Spywares and other threats can be installed on a "secured" computer (As yours), contrary to removal tools... I just want to know something else : Can you remove files from your hard drive ? (Like cookies, temporary Internet files, etc...) And can you launch Windows' Registry Editor ?

Kuuki Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 >.> I live on a military base where i have to sign in and out to what computer i use. IM NOT F***ING WITH IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Heh, fair enough, it is odd though, spyware being able to run on a supposedly secure computer, especially a military computer. Talk to the administrators about it, just tell them they've got spyware, if they're as smart as they should be, they'll be able to sort it.

Kuuki Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 i'm not the cybercafe watch let them do it ^_^ anyway, the people who work on the network for the base is mainly civilians, which composes of former military anyway, but there are like one or two active navy members (Navy Marine Corps Intranet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
