This installed itself from an ad on Webrats and is messing up my computer and is spyware - why do webrats allow this garbage?

Why did you post the same thread in like 3 spots..


Also why did you press install.. when the installer popped up.. It tried on my pc.. but i just cancelled it.


I dont know how to remove it.

combining MS antispyware, Zone Alarm Suite and some specific anti winfixer tool cleared it up.
For those who experienced it, you might have noticed that every button except Alt F4 resulted in it installing something, and using Alt F4 closed webrats as well. Simply clicking on "cancel" did not stop it, sadly.
utterly evil advert, nearly made me stop loving webrats ;)

yeah hitting cancel once didn't stop it.. but everytime that window popped up i hit cancel.. and it stopped.. was like 3 or 4 times.. not sure what it was and it was kinda rediculous that spyware is getting this rampant.

anyhow good that you got it cleared up.
