RE: malware/spyware inside ???
Hello, I know Cadavre, and we never get these types of problems. You say this is adware, but no ads have popped up nor have we been pestered with anything that even resembles the definition of adware. Malware on the other hand, as defined by Techterms.com is "software programs designed to damage or do other unwanted actions on a computer system". Toolbars are notorious for such things, and why there was an unknown app/company called Linkury in Folder form with several DLL's and other another extension which also ran a background .exe as seen in the Task Manager sounds suspicious to me. A simple and quick Google search on Linkury shows some reviews on it, or tips on how to remove it, which already says it is not a good sign. If you are a volunteer, then who is behind Plus? Wouldn't it benefit to get to the root of the problem? I understand you only know so much, and I thank you for responding, but this is alarming. I've worked with computers for years and I know what is what, and while I realize the possibility of a mistake, this shouldn't have happened to several different people.
