Adware found 18 critical things, Bob, when I did it. I ticked them to be deleted. It deleted them and quarantined something, too.

Betty in reply to your PM I have never heard of any problems deleting the things that Ad-Aware finds. You can quarantine them to be cautious. I have never bothered. Anyone else had problems? Bob

Hi MM, Do you get a red Icon that looks a bit like a ladybird when you dowload this programme, this is what I have. Betty

Hi again MM, I am going to download it anyway and see what happens but I have to close everything else on the computer, so I will be offline for a few minutes anyway. Betty

Hi MM, It doesn't have Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition 1.06 on it at all. It just has dowload and when you do it takes you to another part that ask you to pay. Up at the top it says buy now, did you see it. Betty

Yes - underneath Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition 1.06 click on download now, then click on run. If a security warning comes up asking if you want to do it, say yes. Then just keep clicking on next. Ignore anything else on the screen. ............... I hope!! ... :-)

This is what it has on mine but not sure if its the correct one. Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition 1.06 Download Now Buy Now Add to my Watch List (What's this?)

Limitations Real time protection disabled Downloads 216,918,685 Requirements Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP Publisher Lavasoft File size 2.72MB Date added May 27, 2005 Alternate download links... Lavasoft Lavasoft With the ability to scan your RAM, Registry, hard drives, and external storage devices for known data-mining, advertising, and tracking components, Ad-Aware SE easily can clean your system, allowing you to maintain a higher degree of privacy while you surf the Web. Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition boasts a number of improvements. Extended memory scanning now scans all modules loaded by a process. Scanning uses the all- new CSI (Code Sequence Identification) technology to identify new and unknown variants of known targets. Extended Registry scanning now scans Registry branches of multiple-user accounts and performs additional smart checks to detect dynamically created references. Scanning speed is noticeably faster, and this version offers an Extended Scanning mode for known and unknown/possible browser hijackers. New in version 1.06: Disk-scan is approximately 30 percent faster. CSI scan is now more efficient. Added 'Scan for low-risk threats' option, to scan for targets with low TAC index. Ad-Watch CSI engine performance highly improved; using less CPU and Memory as well as having a smaller footprint. GUI adapted to use the new TAC.

Betty, do you have a friend / relative / friendly relative / friendly friend ... who could pop round and have a look? Wish I were nearer to you, though would probably press the wrong thing if on someone else's computer!!

The former, Betty. I don't know about a paintbrush though.

Hope your daughter is better soon. Just seen your PM, Betty - I used the website that Judy gave, and downloaded on where it said download now (top left, I think).

Hello everyone sorry I was up really late this morning and been out today visiting grandchildren, has anyone got the Adware addy please. I think I must have downloaded the wrong one, as it does scan the computer but then asks me to join for a fee, its Amercian. Betty

Betty - have just checked both of these, and in both there is an ''upgrade'' option - if you click on that, then you are asked to pay.

Thanks, Judy. When my computer went wrong recently and had to have a new hard drive, I installed the spyware but forgot the adware. Done it now! ... :-)
