Instant Access
I turned on my computer today and found an icon on the
bottom and it's called instant access. I pulled it up and it's a little box to pick cash, checks or "babes". I don't know how it got there. I went into my control panel and tried to delete it and it won't let me. It just keeps trying to let me download it. I can't get rid of it. It says it's Microsoft Instant Access. I don't think it is but that's what it says. I know my boyfriend isn't in to this stuff. I KNOW he isn't. He gets porn in his other emails and asks me to emty it all the time. He doesn't even use the computer that much. I also get these Juno SPYWARE bugs now that I didn't get before. I get sometimes 9 or 10 at a time until I have to shut my computer down. I hate to say it but I might have to shut it down all together if it doesn't stop. But that's not your problem either, lol.... Thanks. If you could help with the Instant Access I would appreciate it.

Instant Access
Hi Mary,
Search and destroy any installed SpyWare/malware/adwa Ad-aware is a free multi spyware removal utility that scans your memory, registry and hard drives for known spyware components and lets you remove them safely. After installing Ad-Aware make sure to run the update feature before scanning. http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ For large amounts of installed spyware and such, it may be necessary to run Ad-Aware several times to clear them all. CWShredder: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html Download Link: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/CWShredder.exe Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/ SpywareBlaster: http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareblaster.html SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed. SpywareBlaster is a non memory resident utility. It works by setting a "kill bit" for the CLSIDs of spyware ActiveX controls, it prevents the installation of any of them from a webpage.
