I got pwn3d by some spyware

pushpills · 01-24-2005

and whenever i load wegcash.com in internet explorer now, the window closes itself. i had to fuck with alot of settings.

too bad microsofts new spyware tool is so worthless, considering they made windows. I had to use hijacthis to delete a buncha shit, go into safe mode and delete a buncha other shit and look all over for new stuff. it took a few tries.

the stuff makes your homepage all sponsored search result clicks, and any other page u try to go to or any link you try to go to sends you to a fake error page, allowing you to click through and then purchase one of several spyware remover programs (affiliate links).

they must be cleanin up. this got to me through an i.e. exploit.

the search engine is fast-look.com

shady fuckers. I was looking at some stats via a window from statsremote and forgot to switch to firefox, and got fucked up while going through some adult sites looking at the advertising.

It is not wise to post the physical link, especially considering people may actually click on it. Always use firefox for the web, fuck using IE, you have to get into that habit of not going online without firefox.
