So the point is either spend the money are you are pretty much screwed. I sent complaint emails to the registrar and the hosting server company. File complaints with ICAN or RIPE or whoever and get them off the web! We don’t have to take this.. First the contravirus popped saying I’d been infected. It offered a free scan. I clicked on the x in the corner and it started to download. I clicked on the x again and again when it froze. I used crtl alt del and it managed to shut down, including explorer which disrupted a search I’d been making. A LOT of this type of CRAP is spread by spammy .INFO / .ORG sites, and ‘Redirects’ such as /.gy.by …for example. Apart from the Usual Virus Protection you (already) have ?!? … steer CLEAR of ANYthing that remotely LOOKS ‘SPAMmy’ 🙂 /Just One Dialler Program in seven years online, (and even THAT didn’t manage to connect ;o) this wont leave my pc i tried to add/remove and keeps comming back Hello, please help me. just my computer was infected sypware virus. then i cant’ open website and can’t do download and not continues web page. please how to remove these all virus , as soon as reply to me. thanks for your reading my message.
