i think microsofts beta spyware program is missing
somthing on my pc possibly because its not common.
Instafinder. it looks like a crummy fake search engine
thing. I DIDNT PUT IT THERE! it takes me there when its an
error page, or just whenever the hell it wants. its damn
annoying. so b4 it pisses anybody else off i think
microsoft's MVPs should look into INSTAFINDER.
Email comments/answers please.

Hi

Spyware is annoying and this is a ongoing battle between
antispyware programs and advertisment/spyware.

"Most often pc's get infected with InstaFinder spyware by
downloading software which can happen unintentionally or
by downloading freeware that is often "bundled" with what
companies call "advertiser support software" .....adware."


-To make MSAS better, send spywarereport to MS, meny
tools.

- Try this, download CCleaner, http://www.ccleaner.com/
and install it.

- Reboot in safe mode, press F8 during reboot/restart.

- Start CCleaner and clean out your junk within
temporarily folders. A lot of spyware "hides" in this
folders.

- Start MSAS and scan 2 times.

- Restart in normal mode.

- Also follow this if your fault remains.

I have purposely installed InstaFinder and then ran MSAS which removed
Instafinder no problem. You may have a trojan that is reinstalling it from
your temp files. Use the cleaner plun is recommending and clean out your
temp files. Run MSAS again and you should be fine.
