it seemed to work. i did everything you said above and restarted it. the popups don't pop up anymore. the only thing that had me confused was right before i accepted "Remove Selected", i got a...

i started getting this fake alert. from my brief research, it seems to be a trojan. i ran a full McAfee virus scan and it said it found a trojan and quarantined it but it still pops up. i tried...

we took off the password protection from the router and it worked. not our preference, but that's the only way we knew how to get hers to work

yeah true but i just want to know why it always gives me errors now when i close the browser. IE 6 never did that...there has to be someway to fix it

but there's nothing i can do to keep IE7? i like the features but just the freezing part is annoying

i recently installed the new IE. ever since then, my browser freezes alot and i have to close the window because i get a "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are...

i ran scans with microsoft anti-spyware, ad-aware, spy-bot, ewido, and i'm currently running ccleaner..i also ran a scan with AVG. i'm now getting random pop-ups which i never got before.

so u basically reformatted your harddrive?

when i try to a new window in IE, it doesn't go directly to my set homepage. instead, it takes me to www.securitycaution.com

supposedly it's an anti-spyware service.

i tried my work computer and the same thing happened. just wondering if my home computer damaged the drive.

i originally purchased a sandisk drive and that was damaged too. not sure what the...

hmm...i just question why the drive worked for a few weeks and now i'm having this problem with it..i just can pinpoint whether it's my computer causing this or just faulty flash drives.

no windows open up. i just see the hour glass appearing and disappearing by my cursor. i hear the sound that is associated with a program opening but then the sound that is associated with a...

when i plug the flash drive in the USB port, it looks like it's going to open the drive, but then it closes...then it tries again, then closes. the hour glass briefly appears next to the cursor,...

so i decided to try a new brand..i purchased the 1GB Verbatim flash drive.

i've had it for about 1.5 months now and it was working fine until last week. i tried to use it on my home computer. ...

i talked to some guy in Office Depot and he said another customer told him about the same problem. the salesperson said that the model i have has had alot of issues.

so what do you think is causing the problem? do you think it's a virus on my computer that is damaging the drive?

sandisk replied, "The issue is probably power. The device is not receiving enough power from the computer to operate correctly."

i'm not buying that

or will a virus damage the drive too?

so i exchanged the faulty drive and got a new one. it worked for 2 days on my home computer and my work computer. i used it on my home computer this morning and the same thing happened to the first...

yeah i'm thinking it's the drive too. are all the pins supposed to be the same length. the middle two are shorter than the outside pins. they don't look bent. but they do wiggle somewhat.
