Clean your computer from Spyware and Adware

I just filtered an email that was promoting a tool that you have to
install to download and share hacked software and illigally copied
DVDs and MP3s. Of course this is against our clear Shella rules.

The reason i am sending this email is to let those members know that
there is no such thing as a free lunch! ALL such hacking tools and
file sharing utilities will install invisible backdoors on your PC to
steal your passwords, personal info or track your surfing to bombard
you with junk emails to say the least.

The most visible effect is when suddenly discover that there is a new
search bar that you never downloaded or installed! or a pop-up
window with an ad although you are not even surfing the net.

Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.2 is a great tool that will scan your PC
for those spyware, adware, hijackers and other malicious software so
you can remove.

You'll be surprised of how many hidden folders, cookies, and spy
software you have:

In addition to spybot you should have Spy sweeper. I have spybot and when i
ran it only three were found but when i installed/ran spy sweeper i found more
than 20 on my computer. Its always better to have more than one program!
