| 178516 | 2003-09-28 00:14:00 | I seem to have recently 'acquired' a program which keeps attempting to dial my internet connection whenever I am offline. I think I have found the program causing it which seems to be webassist/ABCwebassist which was created 10 days ago and found in the windows folder. I don't seem to be able to delete it, and nothing apparently happens when I connect to the net when it prompts me to. It does however often stuff the computer up when other programs are runing |
