Where do search registry exact path of xupiter information ?


and reply to..

serious inner computer problem

I had that happen too with that and other search engines. Just go to their website and look for the uninstall page thats the best way to get rid of it and also change your settings on your puter so that it doesnt download things automatically

On Internet Explorer go to
Tools
Internet Options
security
then click custom level
and click disable download

Only thing that stinks is when you want to download something you have to change it but I dont mind saves me the hassle

this xupiter program help this

I have searched now!!

http://www.xupiter.com/uninstall.exe

yes thats it. I think by law they have tohave an uninstall program too so if this happens with other search engines just look for the same thing

well I agree with you there they shouldnt just download crap on your puter thats for sure!

You can also install adware and thats free...takes alot of that crap off your puter

Yes, it would also get rid of the malicious spyware of 7 Search as well. I don't know why a couple of the webmasters that I am in using that?

THANK YOU Now if I could just get rid of TOPCLICKS.NET

well i had xupiter installed on my computer.

i was surfing share-traffic and all of a sudden xupiter had arrived. its a silent download. a sneaky little devil that sneaks onto your computer.

which to me is a malicious act.

i had to reload windows to get rid of this.

i knew also to go to the registry keys and delete all keys related to it. not too many people know that they have to do this. its more than just deleting it from your system.

and i wrote to share-traffic and they said i have to let them know which site forced me to download it. as if i knew.

i knew i had it when i went to do a search and there it was lol xupiter came up.

I have gotten this darn search thing half a dozen times, deleted it but you
mention possible spy ware. could you possibly post a link to the places that help
you rid of these programs much appreciated !
Every since my first seeing it in my browser I have had puter probs.....maybe this is why??

SpyBot-S&D searches your hard drive for so-called spy- or adbots; little modules that are responsible for the ads many programs display. But many of these modules also transmit information about your surfing behaviour and more to the net.


you can get spybot at

Ad-Aware removes files used by advertising supported software to "call home" and exchange statistical data. The program will list all detected files, removal is optional and may cause some adware programs to quit working. You can build backups easily before removing adware components or fixing your registry. The included backup-manager lets you reinstall a backup with a single mouseclick. You can also specify to ignore certain components, and keep them remaining on your system without triggering an alert each time you scan. The following advertising systems are detected by AdAware: Adware, Alexa, Aureate v1.0,2.0 and 3.0, Comet Cursor v1.0 and v2.0 Cydoor, Doubleclick, DSSAgent, EverAd, OnFlow, Flyswat, Gator, TimeSink v1.0 and v2.0, Web3000 and Webhancer -

hope it was okay to put the links here - they aren't referral links so I think I am okay

anyhow you should use these progs. daily to clear all this crap from your computer - you will notice your computer won't lag as much either or have as many errors

I wanted to show you an example also - I just cleared my computer this morning and this evening after not much surfing today this is what spy-bot search and destroy found:

even things like windows media have spyware in the program, all dialers are put onto your computer..... you get the idea

make sure you do the spy-bot update after you download it too

here are some posts on this forum regarding scumware

read williambbb's post it explains how to use these programs

http://www.getpaidforum.com/forums/index.p...=scumware&st=30

Wow, I just did a scan w/ Spybot and found 300 problems. Should I delete all of these?? or only some?

look at the list of known spyware, hijackers, malware, ... that spybot lists on their site if you see any of these start with them first. If you have kazaa though do not erase cydoor because it won't operate without it.

Then see what you have left over - look on the site for those thing again. I haven't had a problem erasing everything but I do not want to say ohhh its completely safe because I do not know what files its finding -

another suggestion is to do a search on google.com for the name of the scumware & see what results it brings up.

this way you can also find out more about what it's doing to your system.

I'd found this ##### xupiter toolbar colliding against my
firewall every time I'm visiting zoinko.com
I'm not saying the bar comes from they. I'm saying every time
visiting this page the toolbar attempt to install in my
computer.
