I have an auto porn dialler on my PC. Can't get rid of it any way I know of - deleted the application + it's connection.

Haven't d/l it, because I'm not stupid.

Help!

if it's that 1on1.exe thing then it's a real pain, i had to clean it from a friends machine earlier in the week.
you made need to download the trial version of HS Cleandisk (by Hisoft i believe, a quick google will turn it up for you) to empty your temporary internet files folder.

delete the executable and check the registry entries under:
CurrentMachine >
software >
microsoft >
windows >
current version >
*run
*runonce

as a lot of those things add entries in those places.

good luck mate

Hmm. It popped again tonight.

Although AdAware keeps on finding new things. Probably cookies.

Hmmm...

that's why.

the point of the 1on1 dialler is that it's a damn pain to remove and AAW won't garuntee it's gone. deleting those reg keys is in no way messy and if you blitz all the angles (AAW, regedit, HS cleandisk, empty the temp files out, reg mechanic) then it's FAR more likely to stay gone.

He lies... Set it to scan EVERYTHING, and remove everthing it finds, and let it scan at startup if any files are in use. Then Ad-aware can kill any spyware/crappy internet programs.

oh for christs sake...

maybe you guys have a different version of AAW that i used, but i set it to scan EVERYthing and it didn't get wiped, that's the point i was making, it's a pain!
the exe file gets wiped, but the one i had to deal with did a strange thing with the temp internet files folder and made a LOT of stuff undeletable. obviously these files don't fall into AAW's teritory but they DO need ot be wiped, if for no other reason than the vast amount of disk space they were using...

Which is why you set it to scan within the achives etc and let it open at startup while any file is deletable.

Make sure ad-aware's spyware definitions are fully updated. It also would hurt to download spybot, update it's definitions and run that as well.
