You're kidding, right?? You trusted the maker of the Spyware that was loaded on your machine WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION to fully remove it, and then THANKED them for it??!!??!! It truly blows my mind how people can put their trust in this company. I can bet your pc is most likely NOT fully cleaned out, and you can guarantee that when you ran their "tool", you gave them LOTS of information off your computer.

We do NOT allow discussion of this "tool" on this site. Please do not post about it again.

Bob the Mailman, as a GeekU student, you need to be aware of this. If/when you see someone posting about it, please pm a Mod/Admin so we can properly close the thread.

To add to what I have already posted...I am sorry if my comments came across as "rude". They certainly were not intended that way. It does not take us "hours" to fix this problem. We have a very simple easy method that gets rid of this Aurora pest for good, and only takes a couple of posts to do so. I hope you can understand my frustration with Aurora/Abetterinternet. They manufacture this garbage, load it on your computers and mess up your pc without your consent, and then ride in to "save the day" with MORE spyware in the form of a "removal tool".

I realize you were just trying to help, and I sincerely apologize for coming across as unappreciative of that fact. We DO encourage people to join GeekU to learn to properly help clean up Malware. I hope you will accepty my apology, and consider coming back to post here on the forums again.
