Xupiter

[MR-C]

Hello all,

I have a prog called Xupiter that has got into my system. I have used Adaware to get rid of it but it keeps returning. The last count that Adaware found was 93 entries, so i deleted them all including the folder it created and checked the reg. But when i go on the internet again the beast returns.

And i have been using Ad-Watch 3.0 too and that wont stop it.

If anyone can help that would be great.

Thanks

This will sound silly. But with some spyware, an old old version of iMesh comes to mind. Anyways it took alternating AAW & Spybot 3 or 4 times & reboots. But it took like 45 minutes running those progs & rebooting. But it worked.

Ad-aware 6.0 is out, you can get it from their site at www.lavasoftusa.com. That is the best scanning.

Also like people said Spybot works good too --> http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang=en...n&page=download

There's the link to that and for free you can have a very good trojan/virus scanner (maybe that would help) called swat it --> http://lockdowncorp.com/bots/downloadswatit.html

Hope this helps.

When you download freeware or shareware programs they come wiht programs like Xupiter and gaotr bundled into them, i's just that you don't know it. If you read the whole EULA you'll see exactly what you're getting but no one reads that, so they enter your system undetected. DivXPROGAIN bundle for instance has gator installed with it, but fortunately it lets you know. Other programs aren't so nice and you find yourself with all kinds of spyware running around on your system.
