Hi, I need help

[angelfromabove]

can people easly track my history or where i've been online? I'm rather pissed off with the factor in abuse but not to ask if i really care

as in don't know them

still i'm 100% private person! and demind if power was to intrude on my only things, I would truely strike them down, still there is not target to strike

and this is a anti market

so how can I know of this and also stop it? any freeware ?

yes... people can easily track your history and have total control over you and your privacy. I think you know spywares by now... or trojans...
Spyware is Internet jargon for Advertising Supported software (Adware). It is a way for shareware authors to make money from a product, other than by selling it to the users. There are several large media companies that offer them to place banner ads in their products in exchange for a portion of the revenue from banner sales. This way, you don't have to pay for the software and the developers are still getting paid. If you find the banners annoying, there is usually an option to remove them, by paying the regular licensing fee.
Why is it called "Spyware" ?
While this may be a great concept, the downside is that the advertising companies also install additional tracking software on your system, which is continuously "calling home", using your Internet connection and reports statistical data to the "mothership". While according to the privacy policies of the companies, there will be no sensitive or identifying data collected from your system and you shall remain anonymous, it still remains the fact, that you have a "live" server sitting on your PC that is sending information about you and your surfing habits to a remote location..... there is almost no way for the user to actually control what data is being sent. The fact is that the technology is in theory capable of sending much more than just banner statistics - and this is why many people feel uncomfortable with the idea.
and then there are also many PC surveillance tools that allow a user to monitor all kinds of activity on a computer, ranging from keystroke capture, snapshots, email logging, chat logging and just about everything else. These tools are often designed for parents, businesses and similar environments, but can be easily abused if they are installed on your computer without your knowledge.

Hi subratam :)


-{ Quote: "AVs and ATs and also spyware guards" }-

I'm not sure where to get AVs or ATs, i think i've tried spyware guards

In honesty i find the apps confusing alittle to what they offer or do

I've got auto view thing which i've shown here before, I'd like a simple app that stop normal net users from peeping in my privacy, thats all, i don't get bothered by compamy spyware as i have spysweeper which seems to kill off any


thankyou ;)

AV = antivirus and
AT = Antitrojan

There are lots of both available out there, and anyone will tell you to definitely run an antivirus. If you are looking for a free one, I use AVG and it works well so far. Many also recommend Avast! but either way you can probably get better protection with a AV you purchase. I'll practice what I preach soon, hopefully ;-)

Have a look around our front page www.wilders.org under anti-trojans and anti-viruses and you can learn a lot more than I could tell ya ;)

[angelfromabove]

Hi Detox :) I see, I have avg antivirus too so i'll now need at ;)

Also, how can i find out more about my buddys on msn e.g. ip, ther history, there real id, there tracking

Like a msn app that brings up info

I have no time for all this, but if i know more about my attackers then! I'd know almost enough



thankyou

[angelfromabove]

I once got full version of pest petrol and also this special hidden virtual drive

and still a hack killed it off, it's like a fight in the head and the walls of the skull are being used more

I don't know how to combat invisble, and if if (it) is what

hack or just a bug or a crap computer

still I kno people who have computers that never die ever :P

the evil man, the spirit heaven, the toy children, a clown, or blank pain in the end what is it all the same

[subratam]

Angel,
we can always stand still making our roots guarded by the evil guard ;D
jokes apart... would you say what kind of privacy problem you face?
you hav spyware guard, AVG and AT very soon... how have you secured your fort??
its how you are working in your computer is very much important.. and then comes the security utilities just adding to your strengths..
just to say... to remain secure
1. keep two AVs (one main AV with resident monitor.. as you want free .. go for AVG.. you hav already and second on demand back up AV just to make sure anything havent got through)
2. one Anti trojan(told you about them)
3. the three musketeers (spybot, spywareblaster and spywareguard or adaware - you said you have spyguard its ok then )
4. one personal firewall(depends whether u want program based or rule based)
5. B CAUTIOUS AND WORK SAFE(the most important)

Hi subratam, I'm d/ling trojan hunter and others now, i noticed this text on one of the apps are are above it,

drag-and-drop file/folder icon into the Folder Window to scan before installing;
Monitor feature checks all running processes, kill a proces with mouseclicks;

Once on a restart the screen was black with a password enter, I typed it said incorrect, i tried again and it let me in, a apparition of code?

also I use ultradev and notepad alot and sometimes weird things happen, like When I copy and paste or type e or f etc something shoots up like help, maybe a shortcut function I'd consider it more a evil evil:(

I have some folders I decorated in picture icons thumbnail view! if you understand? me well anyway sometimes the system folders are cutstomized with my images on the folders ???

it's a joke! but harmless for now

any ideas?

Just read the reply 1 of this thread i gave about spywares... maybe you can get some part if not full of your answer

thx

[Detox]

I would definitely recommend staying far away from "noadware" and their "spyblaster"...


On the other hand Javacool and his SpywareBlaster are a totally different class ;)
Excellent stuff and no unethical scare tactic pushing like "noadware" uses.

[angelfromabove]

I appreciate your popping in, but i'm now confused ;)?

wilder advertise these, I can't think whats bad about them,

any body else got a perfect combo anti spyware bundle (listing)?

hey angel,
Detox said to stay far away from "noadware" which is not "Adaware"
the links i gave about spybot, adware and spywareblaster are one of their class and i dont know if any other perfect combo is there better than these at this moment...
thx

[Detox]

Let me clarify; stay away from noadware and their "spyblaster"...


the GOOD stuff that we recommend is Javacool's SpywareBlaster.

More likely than not, noadware uses a similar name in order to fool unsuspecting folks who have had Javacool's software rightly recommended to them.

Javacool & SpywareBlaster = good

noadware & Spyblaster = bad (IMHO)

[angelfromabove]

cool, btw what is wrong with noadware is it evil?

co's i had it installed

[snowbound]

By the look of these 2 threads,

http://computercops.biz/postp30320.html

http://miataru.computing.net/security/wwwboard/forum/7515.html

noadware looks a little suspicious. ;)

[angelfromabove]

ow no! thats bad i'm not therez

well, please check your thingy, see image, thats it, is yours all messed up, if not then i'm totally in belief that there is some fee acce ss evil here
