OK, DOING THE SCAN. 210 AND COUNTING, I COUNTED over 20 (ignore caps) severe threats. two are autoupdate, i thought that was something to do with windows though? into the 300's now....
o shit.i just came back and it has found.... 2512. ranging from minor annoynce to high threat. what sohuld i look for? worms? malware? data mine? BHO? trojans??
ok, there seem to be some fairly obvious viruses, such as dyfuca, randomly named trojan, troj/trofgar AW, adware p2pnetworking. there are a lot of cookie types, and one that seems to be there a lot is PeopleOnPage. wild tangent have about 350 files it found, claria/gain/gator/dashbar is another with one hell of a lotm aparently its a data miner and theres 1700 odd of em.their only classed as annoyance though, but this thing IS an annoyance
i just had another look, theres something called 'orbitexplorer' and it has 50 odd high threat items.
ive just realised from when i did a virus scan on my comp before and it found 1300, that my comp has had nearly 4000 viruses of various types on it since it was first used... ouch!
