ITotalfind!??????????

I don't know how this gets onto one's computer but it is very annoying!

What happens is that when you view a website with adsense ads on it you won't be able to see the adsense ads. Instead what you will see is ads by itotalfind!

There also seems to be a big problem when you try to get rid of this. Apparently it is a very hard thing to do! It's being classified as malware. According to Wikipedia, Malware is software designed to infiltrate or damage a computer system without the owner's informed consent. Here is a discussion board that is discussing the topic and possible ways to get ri of it. But so far nothing seems to be working. One person posted that they tried contacting the company but still nothing has been done. Another person said that they had to reinstall their windowings operating system just to get rid of it!

It could also have something to do with it being associated with some type of affiliate program and when people join the affiliate program they get it installed on their computer.

I've Got A Secret.....................................

Every wonder how people get around having to pay Microsoft every time that they install Windows?

I was browsing around on the Internet and someone actually posted a way to do this.

Anzio?

I have this program called Anzio. It took me a while to figure out (or should I say remember) this program. It is a telnet program which allows you to communicate with another computer. If I remember correctly it was a free download but it took me a while to "get" to the program.

It is still being offered as a free download at: Anzio.com

The program is used to communicate with Bulletin Board Systems (BBS). I'm still deciding on whether or not I will used the program because with the Internet there's really no need to communicate whith a bulletin board system - unless I find a really good one!

I very rarely throw out anything and that includes programs that may be considered obsolete but I will hold on to this program just in case I find an interesting computer to communicate with........................
