It's true. I think every one needs to learn how to whack a computer. It takes just a couple of hours to whack and reload everything. And people are having to have it done more and more often due to this craziness out there. And it's $250 a pop. That's a lot of cake toys!!

Thanks so much for all of your comments. It makes me feel better just "talking" about it. Thanks for the tip about disconnecting the phone line while not using the computer! icon_smile.gif

Wow...I had no idea this stuff was so common. The pop-up sounds like something that could be associated with messenger. I've read about this at GRC.

I use the programs on this site to periodically test my computer. Shields Up! is great.

It also keeps me up to date on all the new security issues.
I hope this helps some.

CakeCentral.com will NEVER use popup ads. We are a firm believer in NO POPUPS or pop-unders. thumbs_up.gif

If you are getting popups while visiting this site it is most likely from spyware on your PC. For more information on spyware and links to spyware removal tools please visit:

That's awful about your computer. I never realized so many people had these problems.
