They also try to secrete Comet Cursor spyware into your computer uninvited. You can get rid of that by downloading Ad-Aware from Lavasoft: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ Also go to Options -Preferences, then General tab and uncheck all boxes, then to Internet Settings tab and uncheck all those boxes. Also turn off Automatic Notification of update. This will give you back some control over what is going on, rather than JukeBox doing things behind your back. Best of luck with your kids!	Guest (0)
