Weird problem with SpySweeper, please help!

Featured Replies

After installing Webroot SpySweeper, there are 2 programs running on background. One is SpySweeper[Caution: ExecutableFile], another is WRSSSDK[Caution: ExecutableFile] (I believe it is WebRoot SpySweeper SDK) While running SpySweeper for a while, my ZoneAlarm pop-up saying that WRSSSDK[Caution: ExecutableFile] want to access to internet, so I click 'accept' and let it access to internet, seeing that it is part of SpySweeper's program.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I seems to have problem with the WRSSSDK one... If I click 'My Computer', the screen usually appear instantly. However, when I have my spysweeper running and so does WRSSSDK, it took about 10 seconds before My Computer could even load. Why do I think it's problem with WRSSSDK? Because when I end task the WRSSSDK, I could open My Computer within a second, as fast as normal - and without problem.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just format my computer, and reformat, and reformat, for about 3 times because of THIS problem. I thought it would go away when I reformat, but no... every time I install the program, this problem occur. I have no idea why, before I decide to reformat my computer there isn't such a problem like this before. I also don't think it is a virus, because I reformat over and over and I still got the same problem, and I don't think I'm getting the same virus as soon as I connect to internet over and over this quick.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's annoying to wait about 10 seconds every time I try to open My Computer/My Documents from start button, and would be really great if I can solve this problem without having to uninstall SpySweeper...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advanced,

If it keeps occuring, simply use something else, try using microsoft adware program, it's very good.

It says that SpySweeper is no good. And with a name like that.. :roll: it doesn't sound very legit. I've never heard of it, and I only use reputable scanners (AdAware, Spybot, Ccleaner). I'd uninstall it and install another one.
