I'm finally able to get back on this board. I don't know what happened, but I couldn't get in, no matter what I did.
I have a computer issue and wondered if anyone can give me some advice on what to do. I have some spyware which can not be removed through a normal scan. It's one of those redirecting things which have about a thousand incarnations. My particular one is "searchmeup".
I spoke to someone who told me that if I don't have a lot of stuff stored on my computer (which I don't-just some documents that I could back up) and if I have my recovery disk (which I do) the simplest thing might be to just restore my computer back to when it was new. Other than having to update windows, and install some software, are there any other pitfalls that I may be overlooking?
If anybody has any suggestions as to what I should do, I would appreciate it.
