gongusan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Ok so my [developmentally delayed]ed brother downloaded two crappy games (without asking -.-), and with one came something similar in name to BitDownload. Ever since then in Control Panel I've had 1-3 instances of something called iexplore[Caution: Executable File] taking up my CPU and Ram. I know that that is the IE process, but this isn't that as I use firefox anyway. Of course I deleted all the games and this Bit thing btw. So yeah I can't seem to do much to get rid of this, AdAdware brought up 43 things which I deleted and Avast was scanning but then I thought of doing System Restore, to no avail. Also I'm getting loads of weird popups coming up so I'm guessing it's adware. Here is a popup: Halp. Ty in advance. EDIT: Just got a MASSIVE popup; It opened a whole new IE browser -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnemad1 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I suggest downloading "Spyware Doctor with anti-virus." You can google it and buy if you want. Or just scan with the trial one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloter Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 iexplore[Caution: Executable File] is some bs i would find the containing folder and delete. IT was made to look like iexplorer[Caution: Executable File] which is internet explorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
