Does anybody know how I can set my internet settings to block a website? I keep opening up my Internet Explorer
and this website shows titled: TRUE LIFE STORIES and its telling me to download Razespyware or something, i have
got rid of all of viruses I can, it sounds like Hijacker too me, but I use Npust Homepage Guard and it works
great, but it just still bug me though. How can I block that website?

Go the the following
TOOLS/INTERNET OPTIONS/PRIVACY/SITES/(TYPE IN URL U WANT TO BLOCK)/BLOCK.

and thats it. :D if you have sevice pack 2 for windows xp, it should have its own pop up blocker.

Seems like you got hijacked... try Spybot.. run the updates.. then do the Imunize.. there are three check boxes you must check so it blocks hijacking.. and then run a full scan.. delete everything it finds..

You might have to reboot and do it again.. in case the questionable processes are running.. also, it wouldn't be a bad idea to also do a full scan with Spybot in SafeMode...

wow chris, you are like a magnet to malware lol.

okay umm, use adaware SE, and upgrade it.
also, do a windows update, and do the same with
AVG.

if THAT doesn't work, try doing system restore :-)

download guardbar. You can find it on guardbar.com. What this is is that its a adware remover and pop up blocker.
