Harsh but fair I think.

My appologies if this is an inapropriate post for this forum. I have had help with my own pc from here in the past and thought this was a good place to start. I'll google search for somewhere to post this log, but if anyone has any suggestions or sites to recommend they would be much appreciated.

I am well aware that spyware doesn't just jump onto a pc and that most of it is in fact stuff that people have asked to be downloaded, however a lot of it does so through less than obvious means. Unfortunately the problem is not me the user it's my parents the users (I did point out it was their machine) and they are unfortunately not as up to speed with computing issues as some people. As I said they didn't even have any virus protection, simply because they didn't realize that they should, or even what virus protection was.

Thanks for your brief look, but there definitely is spyware on there, because as soon as the internet is connected I get a handful of "fake" dialog boxes asking me to visit security and adult sites aswell as poups requesting I install toolbars before the computer grinds to a complete halt.

Cheers anyway, as I said I'll find somewhere more appropriate to post, i didn't mean to cause offence.
