Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin

8. Double click on the cwsserviceremove and when asked to merge say yes.

9. Run CW-Shredder - Hit the FIX button - let it run and fix what it finds.

the dr. watson won't allow me to unzip or download (i'm not sure which one) AboutBuster. should i go on with the other steps or is there something else that can replace it?

[xannax]

ignore that last post, i tried it one more time and got it.

[xannax]

hi-
i've got everything installed and downloaded, but i don't know how to "open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options."

how do i do this?

thanks.

[xannax]

sorry to double post again...
fixing the last post. i can't open control panel with the dr. watson. what should i do now?

[pomp]

Umm, just open my computer.

[pomp]

ok, if you can't get there in normal mode, just go into safe mode and do it!

[xannax]

okay, i've done steps 1-3.

during step 4, though, i couldn't erase netlo32.exe, it said it was still running.
When i typed in "ddawua" into Search, it sent my computer back into what it did before, with dr. watson.

i also can't run aboutbuster because of dr. watson, so i'm doing adaware right now.

any suggestions?

[pomp]

Are you doing this stuff in SAFE MODE?! because you shouldn't be getting a message that it's running and stuff!

[xannax]

i rebooted in normal mode on accident...

well, i went into Safe Mode and did everything, but the dr. watson is still there and i can't download the hoster from step 11.

[pomp]

Are you trying to download Hoster while in safe mode? Because that's not going to work, you have to download stuff in normal mode.

[xannax]

no, i went back into normal mode to download it.
