Thanks to Gina, I learned that iWon (evil bastards!) is installing Trojan spyware on computers! You can read all about what she had to go through to remove it; meanwhile I’m off to download and run Spybot – Search & Destroy Software that she found thanks to TechTV. As for iWon? Evil Bastards! I don’t care if they warn you or not, don’t mess with my computer like that!

kazaa does too. Thanks to Todd, I found ad-aware and finally got rid of that stupid gator software. It was driving me to drink!
Oh yes – I’ve blogged about Ad-Aware before. I try to use that one every few months. Unfortunately, it’s not picking up on the iWon (Evil Bastards!) Trojans yet.
I used to use Kazaa-lite just to avoid the Kazaa spyware – that stuff is just evil. Fortunately, Ad-Aware picks up on Gator!
down with the evil !

Well prevent trojans and viruses from running is simple on a windows platform. However, you will need to know that they are first. I always interogate the interfaces in the registry before and after installing any so-called “free” or “shareware” software. To date I have not had a virus, a worm, a trojan, etc., that has done anything harmful to my PC.
Yet another thing that us Linux users don’t ever have to worry about
I just have a question. I had 2 trojan viruses on my pc a couple days ago, and my virus scanner detected them and fixed them. But, then i noticed a program called keyboard logger light on my pc, that evidently records all keyboard strokes made on my pc. When i took the program off, it ended up on my pc again a couple hours later. Is it possible for someone to has a remote access to my pc and to this? Or is it being done on my pc, because my wife and kids use it too, but i dont think they would do such a thing without me knowing. Thanx for your help.
