Came home from work today and wife complained about the computer acting weird. Apparantly windows popped up by them selves. Yea, its hijacked, I figured.
So I downloaded process explorer and found the creeps and killed them. Then downloaded adaware and defender and started searching for whatever took over the computer. At the same time trying to interrogate my wife what she has installed... She couldnt remember anything special. After a while I remember I had Your uninstaller and ran it only to figure out she had installed a new version of MSGplusLive...
She got a update message while using the computer, downloaded the update and installed it. She dont know what it does other than the fact that I've installed it previously so it must be ok.
I know the stage in the installer where you choose not to install the "software from hell" (aka browser hijacker) is pretty clear, and if she only had read it a little closer... but she didnt.
I cant express in words (suitable for this forum) how much I despite the sponsorprogram, and I see myself forced to uninstall msgpluslive at home since I cant trust the other users not to press next, next, yes, ok, agree, next, finish, and so on. There MUST be some other way to get this software sponsored.
A huge
to the current sponsorship-solution.
