who is this Nick Reed pendejo? Maybe we should get together and find him. His link made my virus scan go wild. Now for the next month I'll be dealing with trojons. It is his fault.

If you are tired of these kinds of problems, there is a very simple solution: Macintosh. You will never have to worry again (these folks nearly always target Windows users only), and you get a much more user-friendly OS. And a nice looking computer!

Does anybody know a fix for this? I have to delete a file called C\WINDOWS\SYSTB.DLL which is now part of Windows, and the Begin2Search thing that has attached itself to my toolbar?
Steve Stallings has always seemed like a stand up kind of guy on the forum from what I recall. He may be unaware of what's going on. I highly doubt it's malicious on his part or Nick's. He needs to be made aware of this, though.
That said--I'm not going anywhere near the site ...
To everybody that's infected with this junkmail.
I installed "HYJACKTHIS" and got rid of ALL the mallware and other pop-ups in 2minutes.The only thing that i also got rid of was my IE and i simply installed that again and everything is alright now.
Thought you would like to now about this.
John and Joey.I agree with the both of you..I don't think that this has been done intentionally.Not everyone is a computerwizzkid...
In the "Computer" section Tom Demeir had a fix for these trojans. It worked for me. I too, don't think Nick or Steve are at fault. If I'm not mistaken, Steve is a Mac user. He may not be aware of any problems. He should now. I still recommend staying away.
hello tom,greenville Tenn. thats where my wife is from, chuckey, anyway, glad to hear
from you, mabe we will meet one day,i gotta
go up when weather gets cooler. have a great
day. farris
Try Mozilla! I visited the "new site" shortly after this thread began. I got no pop-ups (haven't seen one in over a year) and caught no cooties while there. I also recommend Linux (that's how I discovered mozilla). The learning curve isn't that bad. I'd liken it to getting used to a relocated pull. Cheaper than switching to a mac (nothing against macs, they helped bring us computer music) to escape the perils of MS systems.
ZoneAlarm alerted me right away when I hit that forum yesterday. I didn't allow the popups to do any damage. It's really discouraging that this is happening. Steve can fix it by turning his site into a "Gold" site (give EZBoard $30 every 6 months). That's what the Christian board does, I think.
This has become a computer topic, so I'm moving it to the "Computers" section.
THANKS GUYS for all the input. Computer back on track.Only took about 4hrs, got all my music back too Thank God.Hope I never go there again. Thanks again.
I highly recommend both Spyware Search and Destroy as well as Ad-Aware by Lavasoft. I see all sorts of mal-ware and trojans day in and day out at work and these are the two that I use. I would actually recommend running both because, I've found that while both are good, neither one of them find every single trojan however, they do compliment each other very well in that what one doesn't get, the other one will. There's also spyware doctor that's really good, but you have to buy the full version before it will remove anything. If you're running windows XP, get service pack 2. It has a popup blocker and firewall built right in.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by David Mullis on 17 September 2004 at 06:23 AM.]</p></FONT>
why, if this is a known issue with the site link from the first message in this topic, has NO ONE DELETED THE DARNED LINK ???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I sort of assumed that people would heed my big red warning, Dave. If you read further, you see that it only affects people using IE, and there's a hope that Steve will fix it.
I just paid the EZBoard $30 for another 6 months of no ads on Off Topic, a board I run for political and religious discussions. I figure if there's a trend towards destructive popups in the EZBoard ads, I don't want to be included in it. The $30 buys me an ad-free board.
This thing has been down for three days thanks to that site! I've downloaded Spybot, Adaware and I'm calling Comcast tomorrow to see what they have. It's taken me nearly five hours to download the Spybot because the adds would lock this thing up.
ZoneLabs, the creators of the Zone Alarm firewall, has just released a 'real-time' spyware blocker that beats anything else I've tried. It's called 'Pest Control' and at first I was amazed by all the spyware it found when searching my PC, stuff that Ad-Aware had ignored, then I was amazed by checking its logfile after being on the net for a few hours. The list of blocked spyware and 'evil' cookies was so long I didn't even bother reading through it. Definitely a useful investment in these times.....
