Ive got a desktop icon right which appeared after browsing the web right, its a shortcut to a program that has been istalled on my puter in some sort of sneaky fashion.

 

i couldnt find the program for a while and just kept deleting the shortcuts of the desktop, ive found it by looking in the properties bit (doh twat) and it wont let me delete it, its saying:

 

Cannot delete: Access denied.

 

Make sure the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is currently in use.

 

well its on my hard drive, so im not using a disk & its just sitting on c:

 

and obviously im not running because i havnt dared opening it.

 

any ideas

 

 

 

 

Stay away from those dodgy porn sites Jay

.... Hmmm a tricky one.

 

Have you tried shouting at?

Is it listed in control panel>add/remove programs?

its not in add remove programs, its not like loads of files, its just one exe file,

 

ed i have shouted on numerous occasions and it isnt listening to a damn word im saying

restart pc and push F8 just b4 it starts loading windows, use safe mode and delete it then reboot

Jay you need to delete it in DOS. Easiest way.

 

Bastard porn sites, I spend half me time getting rid of viruses and executables than I do wanking.

[censored] why you all doing it the hard way? FOOLS!!

 

mate download this

 

http://www.techconnect.ws/download.php?filepath=Utils/Adaware/aaw6181.exe&language=en

 

this will scan your system for crapy spyware and program alike.

 

If it comes back then it's hidden its self, but do not fret i'll walk you through removing the bastard!!

Either that, or kill the exceutable in processes (via the task manager), and then delete it. Easy-peasy!

not quite, a lot of these are gettin quite clever. They use the reg files to reinstall themselves as they have a file that looks like it can't be associated with that. hence why they keep installing themselves once you think they are deleted. Clever bastards and fuckin annoying.
