Damn Mom...
She installed a nice little trojan on the computer called Dashbar. "It pays YOU to shop!" It is a data miner that tracks all the places you go on the internet. Hmm.. sounds fun. Then it pays you like a doller for every ten you spend online... how nice of it. Basically this little program has the ability of stealing all your personal info when you make an online purches. Now, I have to someway get rid of it. I ran ad-aware and found 200 (thats alot!) of new trojans, about 75 were named Claira, which I foundout is dashbars main company name, or somthing of the sort. Unfortunatly I could not get it off through ad-aware, and am not seeking more aggressive measures.
Why my dad lets my mom use the computer is beyond me, she always screws it up...
\Oh well.
