Stopsign.com/free

[Redj]

I saw this advertised on A & E last night on the tv. It will give you a free virus scan. My puter is slower and also, it has been hanging. And sometimes I cannot get the server, and it says "page cannot be displayed". And the worst thing, reggaeplus.net keeps chipping out !!!

I do have McAfee, and I just ran Ad.Aware.

Should I give this "stopsign" a try??? Or am I inviting more problems....??

Thanks for any input.

Stopsign is not free!
It might be worth you running Spybot alongside Adaware.

Re: Stopsign.com/free

Yes, Bigtime you are correct!

Stopsign is free for the scan, but the cure is what you have to pay for! (the scan did find 13 bugs)

Will find spybot, and run it.
Thanks
Have a blessed day !

Re: Stopsign.com/free

Do you have dial up or what?

Did R+ use to play OK, on your internet hook-up, then start acting up?

How long has this been going on?

What did you do or where did you surf before the issues started happening?

Are you behing a firewall?

What is your cookie sensetivity setting (Low, medium or High)?

What kind of modem to the net are you using?

Redj this online scan is free and will fix anything as well for free:

In addition sounds like you could use a deletion of temp files (start/run/%temp%....select all delete), then a scan disk and defrag.

Plus as suggested spybot and adaware
Then answer Jkids questions

Homework for you

Forget all that rubbish !!

Go here and download:
1. Spybot - Search & Destroy
2. SpywareBlaster

Both free and very good!!
