Bitcomet 0.70

Hi

Anyone encoutered this problem that if you click on any torrent site, the address bar just shows this "http://www.clickaudit.com/goto/?36890" and doesn’t respond anymore…

I tried re-installing and still the same.

:frowning:

This sounds like you might have a browser hijacker present (spyware/malware).

Some of these are quite hard to remove. Here are the programs I use (I use all of them, one at a time to clean an infected computer)

1st, run a good antivirus with latest updates. My favorites are Kaspersky and McAfee.

Then I run Spybot search and destroy, then Ad Aware (be careful for sound alikes). Both of these are free.

I have found that xoft anti spy is the best at removing hijacked browers. This one isn’t free, but is availble on most major torrent sites.

HiJack this, is also a good one, but not for a novice.

Thanks for your reply! I will try what you suggested.

By the way, why is i that this spyware/malware only affects my bitcomet but not internet explorer?

Does it specifically target only bittorrent programs?
