Unwanted Spam

[Guest]

I have an unwanted task bar just below my functional task
bar. It directs you to adult content sites, but it looks
like a task bar. How do I remove this? There are no
places to delete it. I have right clicked on it , but
nothing comes up. Any suggestions ?

Thanks

You might want to d/l one of the following "malware" detectors; otherwise,
your question should be posted to a more appropriate newsgroup- perhaps
microsoft.public.security

Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoftusa.com
Spybot Search and Destroy: http://spybot.safer-networking.de/

.Hello.I am not a pro, but I think you can go to programs

or favorites in your computer files and delete the file
and that will take the bar away. I had a perv site icon
placed on my computer and thats how I got rid of it.It
will probably have name you don't recognize, but be
carefull you don't delete a wanted file. Hope it helps,

You can also try a program called HijackThis. You can get
it at zdnet.com.

I suspect Ad Aware or Spybot would find this for you. But I'm just
guessing. See the Security Utilities page at www.tonytoews.com for
links.
