  1. This thread was almost a year old when you posted in it.
  2. Good score on that one Matt, I didn't get near yours
  3. Just been having a play with these free games for fun, they take a minute to load, a look at the instructions is a good idea. http://www.orbitech.org/games.html Also see there is some other stuff here as well. Will give the browser a try later on. EDIT Softpedia on one page gives a warning about the browser and then on another, gives download link It's that stopbadware.org thing, missed it the other day as I was away on holiday.
  4. I think I have a problem here
  5. Here are a couple more small utility programs to use in certain situations. They are not substitutes for having a full av etc on your computer, and some are not compatable with vista. As with all things like this, read the instructions. Along with the one CeeCee gives above, these should cover a lot of problems where you know the name of the virus/malware. http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/default.aspx http://www.norman.com/Virus/Virus_removal_tools/en http://www.users.muohio.edu/pestroja/spyware/
  6. It actually came out a while ago, see below http://www.kaspersky.com/news.html?id=3673884 and seems to be used in a similar way that the " avert stinger" is from Mcafee. Another free tool though isn't a bad thing.
  7. Have a read here about how to use system restore http://bertk.mvps.org/
  8. Welcome to the forum Did you do a normal clean or an "issues" clean? If it was an issues scan did you choose to make a backup? Have you tried system restore?
  9. Hellp Bambam I don't use vista myself but I gather HP Total Care is an HP vista product. You say you checked the CCleaner backups, did you not right-click and choose merge which would have restored any reg items from the issues scan you did? Did you try system restore? CCleaner does not remove windows updates, only the uninstallers, and only if you tick it in the advanced section. I've seen various problems people have with this product such as here http://www.vistax64.com/vista-general/6781...t-hp-asset.html Also run your virus and malware scans again and if you are suspicious at all, post a hijackthis log in the hjt log analysis part of this forum.
  10. I also use opera (version 9.23) and have no problem with the images. Are you using the latest opera beta? If in this forum you go to my controls, then board settings, does it say yes for viewing images?
  11. Ok Craig, you've talked me into it, I think it's a winner. I've just worked out that with all the members we have here, about 16 thousand and they want 5 thousand (pounds) That's less than 3 and a half pounds each!! We could rename it to CCleaner image hosting
  12. Have you any kind of popup blocker installed?
  13. Just in case Craig you decide to do any other things like this, a read here may give you a few thought to be going on with http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/
  14. Hi Craig, it works fast for me and seems to show no ads for others, so I will keep this one.
  15. A reasonable article here http://compreviews.about.com/od/video/a/HDMI.htm
  16. A new sport...underwater chess http://www.screenshots.cc/view_image/6f90f851/chess.JPG
  17. speytone, my advice to you is do your research very carefully into each service, before you even consider disabling it. Sometimes services depend on other services. It's very easy to get carried away with disabling things. Your start up slowness can be caused by other things such as software conflicts. Just how long does it take to startup? Which bit seems the slowest? (Not against disabling services, but just want you to take care )
  18. It may help you Eric to have a read of this http://www.internetrotsyourbrain.com/ccleanerbeginnersguide/ In particular the item listed on the left....CCleaner information
  19. Your problem has been solved here Helle534 http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=12059
  20. Just trying this one out http://www.screenshots.cc/view_image/7553d..._Coca_Colla.jpg
  21. Oh dear I'll remove the link then. I just don't see the porn ads with having a hosts file
  22. Thought I'd try this one out that I seen Andavari using Edited out as some posters see unsuitable ads.
