(BEFORE YOU DO ANY OF THIS DOWN LOAD AND INSTALL ANOTHOR BROWSER THE EASIEST ONE WILL PROB. BE FIRFOX, FOUND AT www.MOZILLA.ORG OR LOOK FOR FREEDOWNLOADS OF THE POPULAR NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR)
Go to the the start menu , then "search" (I think it may have
been "find" on older models") .
Obviously choose "files and folders" and the bug is (ready?)
A PROGRAM!!!!!!!
(you saw that coming) called sp.exe So just search all files and folders on C: for sp.exe
Mine came up with three, one with just the program itself,
then a copy insode some temporary internet pathway that ends in a goofy name, like Sethbert, ans a third one in the same goofy folder. He told me to delete 'em all, and it's all be sweet since than.
Pretty simple
START-->SEARCH-->For files or folders-->
You'll get a new box with a bunch of options, unless this is the first imte you've used the search featrue, in which case it will walk around a bit and strut, flexing it's muscles like it's "preparing for first-time use" (yeah, right, we've all heard that one.)
Once it loads, you'll have some-what are they-frame thingies?-down the left, asking what you want to search for? In WindowsXP, it's the 3rd option from the top: "All files and folders. " Don't let them talk you out of of anything.
Shortly therafter, you are going to get a box to pop up asking what you wish to search for. Well, if you think you have what I had-if you've done ctrl+alt+delete and seen it's beady little eyes yourself, you search for sp.exe (don't use any asterisks-it will come up with exactly the stuff that's messing your puter. Delete it. Reassure your computer that, yes, you're sure you want to delete the adware and spyware from your computer. Empty your recycle bin.
When Aliens Attacks, the Apocalypse, or the Fuzz, Man: Call your local clergyman and tell him to mee tyou at you place , out place, and fast. It's an emergency. RUn upstairs and grab your computer- not the monitor, dork, just the motherbord and such, and bring it out back, where the others should already be standing around a 4'x3'x2' pit they've dug.
It was too late . It was more than sp.exe. The crabbriest looks at you and hands you some sort of bludgeoning instrument, surely made of lead, for while you removed sp.exe from you computer tonight, Bob's Big Boy just threw down his giant hamburger (death toll not yet in) and stumbled over to Old Navy, demanding a change of shirt as "he claimed he knew #### well we sell outsize slothing ana -REEEEEEPPPPPPP!
I'm just kidding. Stufflike this only happens at the end b/c if we remembered all the the real warty frogs we'd kissed, the human face would die out.. That was just a silly story. We knoe EXACTLY how to get rid of the meanie. We knows it all always have, instinctively, we've just hesitantly to apply that to I put him in my recycle been a mail order SECOND TIME. THROW OUT THE TRASH. AND TURN IT ALL OFF ANd RESTART.
