| 220337 | 2004-03-05 22:45:00 | Hey :) I was surfing through my program files folder looking for some macromedia software, and yeah found it...but as i was surfing i found this folder called "Dialers" and from what i know about dialers related to computers..its not a good thing so i deleted that folder, there was nothing in there anyway....and ran antivirus and ran adaware...and found nothing...is that certian meaning that theres no dialers on my computer? or is there some other software i need to run? I'm using winxp home :) Cheerz |

| 220338 | 2004-03-05 22:51:00 | for extra strengh, try spybot, search and destroy(tm) :D | Megaman (344) | ||
| 220339 | 2004-03-05 22:51:00 | Well, running win98se I just ran a "find" for "dialers" and there was nothing so I guess you're alright and you can still connect. Mind you I'm still *sigh* bit of a newbie as you will see from an earlier post. :D | mark c (247) | ||
| 220340 | 2004-03-05 22:57:00 | hey thanks for your replies.. what i think i'd do is download spybox...where do i get that from? and update adaware, and NAV and run all 3..one after the other to be pretty certian :) |

| 220342 | 2004-03-05 23:05:00 | just remembered, try www.downloads.com | Megaman (344) | ||
| 220343 | 2004-03-05 23:06:00 | http://security.kolla.de/ ....is one place. And it's "Spybot" not spybox, though there may be something called that. Spybot S & D (Search and Destroy) THT :) |

| 220345 | 2004-03-06 00:14:00 | > Re: Dialers..... An ellipsis has 3 dots ( ... ) not 4 or 5. This is like some thread some years ago. "I have a folder called Virus on my drive but theres nothing in it. Is it safe to delete this folder? Does this mean I have a virus in my computer?" |
