PCs, so if anyone else has ran into anything, please post the name of it, so i can have the documentation for my end
Your way out of your depth pal.It says it all when you say you have had all them infections.Go onto "bleepingcomputer" and spend 3 years reading about MBAM and RKILL. "The blind leading the blind" LOL
okay, i didn't say i gotten infected by these, i have to repair people's PCs and well, these are a few i have documented, also, i was trying to be polite about trying to help and get help from people that might have spyware issues also so, before jumping at someone, please read fully before saying anything anyways, i use spybot and MBAM most of the time, but i still take down the names of the spyware i run into, in case i have to remove them on a note were i don't have the ability to get mbam and other programs to remove them >__>
1.You didnt say it was other peoples computers-so that leaves yours. 2.If you dont know how to get specialist removal tools to work,then ask someone that does. 3.If someone posts incomplete or inaccurate "crap",then Ive a right to challenge it. 4.Compare with what you think and what is reality by visiting BleepingComputer,and educate yourself. 5.I am not going to say any more on the subject.If other people want to follow your advice-then thats up to them. I certainly wont help bailing them out LOL. :'( 5.I have been repairing computers almost as long as you have been alive
ok, alot of times, i don't have internet where i fix PCs at, and other times im working on the PCs by myself, i don't really have other people helping me you know i just posted this for helpful stuff, not for people to tear me down on this and this is why i stated if you have ran into anything to post the name here, so that it could help me further but you know what, you sound like the other computer repair guys around me, were they try to charge $400 ~ 500 US dollars to put a OS back on a PC Edit: ok, what i meant was, that i normally might not have the normal resources to download MBAM and Rkill to the people's PCs, also if you have some actual decent stuff to post, instead of tearing at me, you could have stated that you were missing something in your guides, cause dang im not perfect with this stuff and i don't mean to snap but from now on i will try to be nicer however, i wasn't 100% clear about my stuff on my first post so i guess that was a failure on my part also i will try to look up the stuff you told me about on the site you recommended
