Colin Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I also had this come up lastnite. I've got no idea what it is, but I cancelled it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadKill Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Winfixer 2005 appears to contain spyware, as shown by a quick Google search. Oh and "lastnite" = "last night". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Oh and "lastnite" = "last night". Because it's such a problem! I thought it was some sort of spyware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle_buckman Posted September 29, 2005 Author Share Posted September 29, 2005 I got got rid of it. You had to pay for it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chanser Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Argh Winfixer managed to pop-up automatically, whenever I start firefox. It didn't even ask me to install, it just did it, luckily when I installed Ad-Block it seemed sort it out . Somehow these Ads are managing to find a loophole through Firefox Anti-Pop-up feature. Don't install Winfixer, useless piece of software and it has a trojan. Search for winfixer popup on Google. Highly recommend that you run Ad-Aware, Spybot, Ewido Security Suite and MS Antispyware.
