Spyware

Got up saturday morning very early intending to play steal and ox all day. Much to my surprise i kept getting weird popup ads about security and my desktop background had been taken over by a security warning. I ran adaware , spybot, antivrus and a few other cleanup programs but nothing would remove it. The spyware had names like smitfraud, virtumonde and outerinfo.

After running those removal programs all morning i got fed up, dug thru my junk til i found my restore CD's and wiped everything and reformatted back to the settings the pc had when i got it. That was more fun than you can imagine. It took the rest of the day Saturday and a good chunk of today to get the PC back to where i wanted it. On the bright side it runs quite a bit faster.

Things are going great at the steal league. New players come in every week and some old timers too. Glad to see them all. Check every day for tourneys they wont always be on the front page.
