I Got Spyware In My Pc!

[hydro_chloride]

I suggest na, magpalit or palitan mo na yung mga password mo. Mahirap na, ikaw din baka di ka na makapag-check ng email or friendster mo

[grovel]

suggestion would be to use linux. they're so user friendly nowadays you won't know the difference. try ubuntu or mepis.

 

as far as windows antivirus and firewalls are concerned. use comodo antivirus and firewall. so far they're the best i've seen na free. they even prompt you if someone tries to access the internet thru the backdoor.

install anti spyware software to clean up or need to reinstall your os if it can't be clean up

[Jun_gats]

adaware is pretty good

[prohunter]

try nyo kaspesky auti virus or nod anti virus, 2 best auti virus and spy ware software

[kadjo]

...meron po ba tayo freeware na anti-spyware at firewall na downloadable?

[knowell22]

go for AVG

 

or an online scan will do

 

www.ewido.com ... Very Effective!

[poppinfresh2k5]

or try avast. ewido used to be very excellent. till they morphed to avg and became commercialized. avg is more famous than avast but so far avast has proven more effective. rule of thumb. never rely on one level of security. and even on the same level, always have parallel modes of security.

Download Adaware from www.download.com

[alteclansing]

here is a combo that is very effective. first download and install lavasofts adaware. Install, run the update and scan. Make sure you remove all detections. Next download and install spybot search and destroy. When installing you can skip installing tea timer. Tea timer is protection for your registry files. I find it a bit annoying so I do not install it. After installation make sure you run the update first before scanning. Make sure you clean all detections. Be aware of immunization though as it will protect you from spyware, it causes some sites not to show properly like friendster.

 

That combo scans works wonders but if the infection is still there you can download and install superantispyware from superantispyware.com theres a free version for home users. You can also use hijackthis a good site to scan for hijackthis logs is at http://hijackthis.de copy your log paste and check the whats safe to remove.

 

All programs can be googled or try majorgeeks.com

I've notice this "blurred" folder appearing in My Documents and in the files in my flash drives. The folder has "kim" as its name. I tried deleting I get an error message that it cannot be deleted. If I double click the folder a new "My Directory" opens.

 

I tried surfing for answers but I get nothing.

 

What is "kim"?

Is it a virus, spyware or trojan?

What does it do to my existing OS, software and hardware?

 

Calling on MTC's IT members. can you shed some light on this? Links to cures will also be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

For me Ad-Aware And SpywareBlaster is still the best Anti spyware programs.. i use this for almost 4 yrs.. Use Firefox for you're internet browser its safe than IE..

Sang-ayon ako sa mga nagsabing gumamit ng Linux o ng Mac. At dun sa isang nagsabing "use common sense".

 

Pero kung walang common sense at gusto talagang gumamit ng Windows, sa oras ng pagkaka-install ng Windows, gumawa agad ng isang Administrator account na siya lang ang puwedeng mag-install o mag-uninstall ng applications. Gumamit ng matibay na password para sa Administrator account na ito. Huwag gamitin ang account na ito para sa pang-araw-araw na trabaho o paglalaro.

 

Gumawa ng isang regular user account na walang administrative access (hindi maaaring mag-install o mag-uninstall ng applications) para sa pang araw-araw na gamit. Bakit? Kalimitan, ang mga virus, spyware at malware ay nag-iinstall ng mga sarili nila-- at minsay, nagdi-disable ng administrative processes tulad ng Task Manager. Kung ang user na na sa loob ng session ay walang access, malabo rin na ma-install ng mga virus, spyware at malware ang mga sarili nila dahil tumatakbo ang mga ito sa ibabaw ng user session.

 

Sa ganitong paraan din maiiwasan ang pagkuha ng Automatic Updates na minsan, ayon sa iba, ay nakasisira imbes na nakabubuti. Pero, hindi natin mapagkakaila na ang mga Updates na ito ay may security fixes na kasama. Hindi nga lang natin dapat gawing "automatic" para mabigyan natin ang mga sarili na mag-Google ng mga posibleng magiging epekto ng mga Updates na ibinibigay.

 

Huwag basta-bastang mag-click sa mga links na ibinibigay sa mga messengers na tulad ng YM o MSN. At iwasan ang mga password/serial number/crack sites-- tandaan na hindi maglalakas-loob ang mga taong gumagawa ng ganitong ilegal na bagay kung alam nilang wala silang makukuhang kapalit galing sa inyo.

 

Huwag basta-bastang sasali sa mga file-sharing network. At huwag mag-download ng kung anu-ano, lalo na kung galing sa mga file-sharing network. Hindi man sinasadya ng mga peers ninyo na mahawaan kayo ng malware, kung infected na ang mga computer nila, malaki ang posibilidad na mahawa din ang computer niyo. At mahirap makasiguro kung sino ba ang infected at ang hindi sa mga ganitong network.

 

Kung maaari, patayin ang JavaScript support ng inyong browser lalo na kung Internet Explorer ang gusto niyong gamitin. Alalahanin na ang Internet Explorer ay isang mahalagang parte ng Windows OS at pagnasira ito, makaaasang magkakaroon ng diperensya ang Windows ninyo. Pinakamainam na gumamit ng ibang browser na tulag ng Opera, Firefox o Safari dahil masira man ang mga ito, hindi naman sila kabahagi ng Windows OS at maaari silang tanggalin o burahin kung kinakailangan.

 

Pero uulitin ko, sang-ayon ako sa mga nagsabing gumamit na lang ng Linux o ng Mac.

 

Maligayang Pasko sa inyong lahat.
