EEK! Ad-Aware screenshot...

Man, there's something wrong when I install XP for a client, and within TWO days, there are that many buggy files.





Boy... And they wondered why their computer was 'slow'...

I cleaned one a few weeks ago that was well over 1000. I believe it was something like 1216.

This persons machine took almost an hour to boot before running ad-aware was like a new machine afterwards...

I had a friend who had P2P programs installed and all full of bull. He had 1490 spyware, found with Spybot. I didnt take a screenshot, but I was impressed. I told him he had to call me when he had some slowness in his computer. He pays well too

OK... it's even worse than previously thought...

Because, for those two days, they didn't even have internet. Internet was only hooked up this morning at around 8:00 AM!!! That means that in about six hours, they did this!!!?!??!?!

Man, I've had my main box online for oh, YEARS! and have had like 20 things in it's life that were ads!

Depends on what you download and which sites you visit.
This makes me remember the time when I reinstalled Windows XP for my grandpa. Right after the setup where it finds out if you are connected to the internet a box pops up. And guess what, it was the Blaster worm box. Sheesh, only 2 second after finding out the internet connection it gets infected.
