Anyone know about 'snapdo'? I get this toolbar unwanted, go to ff view, toolbars, X it out, I go to a site and it pops back in. How can I get rid of it? If I had asked for it, that would be one thing but I came unannounced.

I get CNN on a second tab. Weird.
-Removed-You make it sound like I get a bug a day, haven't had one in months. I ran superantispyware on it and it found three copies of a trojan.agent/Gen-rogueAV.
After it theoretically killed them and reboot, chrome still has that frigging snap shyte on it. I am going to try the new version of AVG next.

Originally posted by sonhouseA lot of these stupid toolbars and custom cursor programs have nasties inside, that's why I rarely use them.

I think I would have uninstalled the browser, re-downloaded it from the browser's own website and reinstalled it. Although if it was a trojan, you'd have to get rid of that too, before reinstalling.
The last nasty I got on my system was a result of visiting a questionable website which then loaded my system with a virus that told Norton that it was expired, and then after my AV was off, loaded me up with about five more. Took me three days to eliminate that nonsense.
Originally posted by sonhouseSince moving to FF from IE, I haven't had a problem with FF at all. IE and Chrome, yes, but not FF. Chrome seems to be the local nerd favorite lately, but I'll stay with FF until it shows me it's unreliable.

Originally posted by SuzianneRIght now FF seems better, I will probably try removing chrome and reloading after AVG finishes. Right now getting wife from hospital, so a bit busy.
