Author Topic: Little sister likes to install adware.  (Read 1220 times)

Maybe she got them from this site, I doubt that though. But it does seem to look like an attraction to little girls

Nvm, that isn't it.

Then again, I'm not an idiot and I use a mac so I don't have a huge experience with viruses other then removing a couple from my Windows Vista partition that I got from some starfish and  a traplink.

The link looks safe though...

Delete MyWebSearch and anything related to it.


Looks like it preys off of idiots just like your little sister. I could see how she fell for it. Everyone knows installing little stuff like that is the easiest way to get viruses and you should explain that to her.


I did some extra research and you have the Adware.Myweb.Funweb product thing that is distributed through their products. You shouldn't ever download from that site, and anyone who visits that website should stay away from all downloads.

There's some extra info.


Also, I removed the link since apparently it has browser hijack programs on there.
