1383140 2014-09-02 20:10:00 Hi, Snap.do has hikacked my Firefox. I have downloaded two free fixes but both run a search and then ask for payment. Does anyone know of a free fix for this ^*%#in annoying hijack please? :mad: Aporosa (5671)
1383141 2014-09-02 20:38:00 Uninstall it. Follow this for FF (malwaretips.com). And reset FF as well after Speedy Gonzales (78)
1383142 2014-09-02 21:20:00 Thanks Speedy Gonzales, yes, that worked. What do you suggest as the best FREE fully-functioning Malware scanner as I think I need to run something. Cheers, Apo Aporosa (5671)
1383143 2014-09-02 21:25:00 Just use malwarebytes. Update it first then do a scan Speedy Gonzales (78)
1383144 2014-09-02 21:30:00 Legend, thanks bro, much appreciated! Have a good one, Apo Aporosa (5671)
1383145 2014-09-02 21:54:00 No worries :) Speedy Gonzales (78)
1383146 2014-09-03 00:18:00 Hi Speedy, got this one too, see WinsXP post, about my effort.

Only thing asking to be upgraded was Java.

1383147 2014-09-03 00:26:00 So you think you've removed it Lurk? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1383148 2014-09-03 03:23:00 One lives in hope Speedy, lol. No doubt time will tell.

Had another one, can't remember it's name, (yes I know we should write it down) but it sat beside the start button, gone burger.

That's what I like about the old RegCleaner program, anything listed as new on there which I haven't downloaded is deleted.

Java was the only thing that wanted updating.

Ps. even Yahoo have pop-up screens embedded.

1383149 2014-09-04 23:49:00 Speedy, there is still a problem with wife's pc, this one here.

Java wants to keep updating and this is throwing up other requests to down load other software. "repair windows errors" is one at top of screen.

WARNING: Your Java Is Outdated!

A critical security update has been released and you are required to update you Java.
This page will automatically close once the security update
has been installed.

Can we uninstall Java without any problem and start again, or is needed for some reason?.

W7 on this pc.

Lurking.
