If you havnt scanned your computer yet you probably have some SpyWare/AddWare on it. Get this crap away! It is monitoring you! You often get spyware by installing free software or downloading driver archives. I know alot of Creative/SoundBlaster driver archives install "GAIN/Gator" on your computer... and have you ever read the user agreement in CuteFTP?

Just did a scan.. and wtf! GAIN is insalled once again!

I dont want to be monitored! I dont want popups with adds that fits my "profile".

Run it, and come back here for some feedback. Interresting to see how many of us who have spyware on their computer.

Edit : This software is free, so im not trying to sell anything here.
You dont even have to register to download it!

Yep. I've been using Ad-Aware for about a year now. Run it a couple of times a week, and my computer is always CLEAN.

One thing worth noting, though: If you use Kazaa and remove the spyware that is attached to it, Kazaa will cease to function.

Anyways.. Its worth scanning your OS. It will not remove anything unless you tell it to.

For all of you Kazaa users-
Delete Kazaa. Install Grokster. Run Ad-Aware to get rid of Gator. Tah-dah. :P
