Can ANYONE tell me how to get rid of the zwinky p.o.s. that I stupidly installed?
I was an idiot an clicked on an ad link here on this site. Now, spybot is jumping up every 10-30 seconds (yes, still a half hour later) recommending that I kill processes in my registry that are caused by Zwinky.
Additionally, my firewall is repeatedly asking about outgoing information that has NOTHING to do with my browser (something that has not happened before this installation)
The toolbar is fully installed in my Firefox browser, I cannot find Zwinky in my programs list (either via control panel or the full start menu in my Windows Vista), and when I search for Zwinky (full system search), I find NOTHING.

Anyone? Any advice?

This is the LAST time I click on an advert on this site.

But if anyone has any advice, before *something* may happen to my comp, I'd appreciate it.

Right now, I have SpyBot searching my entire system, but I'm looking for advice in case that doesn't work.


Thanks in advance :) ]]> kangitanka http://www.christianforums.com/t7417740/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7417074/ Thu, 12 Nov 2009 06:45:27 GMT I have Vista Home Premium 64 bit (just bought my computer in September after my old computer croaked)

although I didn't go crazy downloading or installing a lot of programs, I kept the applications/software to a minimum, knowing that I'll get a free upgrade to Windows 7.

which is better: upgrade or fresh install? ]]> loribee59 http://www.christianforums.com/t7417074/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7416818/ Wed, 11 Nov 2009 08:39:22 GMT Sometimes when you want to watch a DVD video but not on DVD player, all you need is a DVD converter to help you to rip it to another portable video players like ipod, iphone touch, etc. Also if your friend borrowed your DVD and you may like to watch it as well then again a DVD converter will... Sometimes when you want to watch a DVD video but not on DVD player, all you need is a DVD converter to help you to rip it to another portable video players like ipod, iphone touch, etc.

I would appreciate if someone here can recommend me some good dvd rippers.Thax in advance!:) ]]> chase2009 http://www.christianforums.com/t7416818/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7416533/ Tue, 10 Nov 2009 13:45:37 GMT Hey! I am considering building a hackintosh. And I am wondering which motherboard producer is best. And if anyone has any experience with home brew macs.
(This is legal where I live by the way)
I used to build computers as a hobby and source of income, but that's many years ago. So I don't know what has changed since then as to which producer I should go for. ]]> faith guardian http://www.christianforums.com/t7416533/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7415077/ Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:51:10 GMT Hey, there's a new benchmark tool out called the Heaven Benchmark made by Unigine.

Download | Unigine (3D engine for games and real-time virtual worlds)

I'd like it if you could post your specs & your results. I've seen very weird results, including:

E7400 (mildly overclocked) with two 4850s in crossfire scoring ~34 fps, and another friend's i7 965 with two 4870-X2s in crossfire struggling for 19 fps, both around the same settings. The 965 is running at stock speeds iirc.

Anyway, I'm just wondering whether the program is faulty or if the 965 owner was just bad at maintaining his system or what (as far as I know, he isn't, at least he doesn't seem to be the type and won't admit to it)... because it should have blown the other out of the water. Thanks in advance. :) ]]> Jesse O. http://www.christianforums.com/t7415077/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7414508/ Tue, 03 Nov 2009 02:37:39 GMT I bought some video and audio from itunes and would like to put them to my portable player,but I am failure, whether they have protection or format require?---- how can I convert or transfer those files?

Using predefined templates, I've thrown together some "Jesus" logos that you can download and use as you wish. There are over 165 logos in total, and they are in .jpg and .png formats. Included in the package are American flag logo texts as a bonus.

I was researching it and discovered there were more distros than the ones I'd heard (ubuntu, red hat, suse, debian)~~puppy sounded interesting. The only thing this system will be used for is internet and email; just wondering what might be recommended for a linux newbie. ]]> MrJim http://www.christianforums.com/t7413834/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7413734/ Fri, 30 Oct 2009 19:21:13 GMT I just recently upgraded to Windows 7 and now when I open AOL very few if any pictures or images show up.

So a few days ago, the computer my sisters use got hit with some sort of virus or otherwise nasty malware, and I was put in charge of fixing it. I got the comp usable again by dual-booting it with Ubuntu so they could still get online, and installed Avast under Wine so I could scan the Windows partition without any interference. I had a feeling a lot of problems were in their Temp caches, so I just cleared those out-of-hand (and that cut down on some of the warnings Avast gave me before I decided to do so). Doing so also freed up about 4 gigs of space on that partition.

Well, the bigger problem is that it detected that pagefile.sys was infected. I know what the file does (the virtual memory store/swapspace; I also know it being infected means that Windows would re-infect itself every time it restarts), but seeing the options I have in front of me here, I want to know - before I try it - if Windows automatically regenerates a clean pagefile.sys on boot if it doesn't find it, or if it not finding it will make the system unusable from the get-go and require being scrapped and restored from scratch. ]]> Qyöt27 http://www.christianforums.com/t7412715/ http://www.christianforums.com/t7412161/ Sat, 24 Oct 2009 15:41:49 GMT Back in July I got this as part of my Sky+ package.
