stopzilla

Having once had good constructive assistance from this site I decided to take long forgotten advice and use beep computer tutorials to gen up on typical problems. Two bits of advice were given by beep computer free reg and instal stopzilla free. Just want to warn others that stopzilla is not free! It requires payment and only uses the word free whn you un-instal! And then only if you make a purchase of other items!!!
Un-installing the dammed thing stopped me from getting on line for over an hour and I wonder if any of the 54 items it claimed to have found existed.(all not found by sd search&destroy and adaware)

STopzilla crap again
If It’s not on the Spywarrior rogue list it should be
the site that is getting paid to push it
“And their little dog too”
ps if Stop Zilla ws downloaded via a link or from an affiliate there could be a lot of bundled crap- see below “second opinions”

dont use the uninstaller in Add Remove oops too late
go to download.com and search CCleaner. download and install it.
Now open CCleaner and under the tools tab click uninstaller. Find the program and uninstall it from there.
may be too late but running clean up is ok

If Spybot and ad-aware did not find I would not loose any sleep on it
Answer a couple of questions while we’re at it
What Version spybot? 1.6? see Help-about
Have you ever run Spybot 1.3 or 1.4?
Are you running IE? if so have you installed Spybot SD-helper and javacool Spywareblaster
are you using t-timer or another real time anti-malware protector (windows defender etc?)

have you right clicked the avast ball and clicked update programs -just to check

have you run secunia software inspector to see if everything’s up to date?
If java is out of date run “JAVARA” before updateing

Do you have a Hosts file
Which firewall and browser?
If IE you may have to reset your home page etc in Internet options
(look for a change to a phoney search engine and advise if found)

for a double check on spybt download MalwareBytesAnti Malware

Click REMOVE CHECKED - a backup will be made
please post the log if any hits I hope there are not any but we have to check for “firiends of Stopzilla”
