mtv_poison Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Hi, this is a very annoying problem for me. This always happens with the leftover remains of adware and i was wondering what program it is that lets you delete files no matter what. I mean, I should be able to have access to everything in my own computer and when something says "access denied" it ticks me off. But anyways, if anyone can tell me of any program they know of that allows you to do this, i'd appreciate it if you could tell me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamTher Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 The reason its "Access Denied" MIGHT be because the file is open see if you can close it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korgg Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 By pressing ctrl+alt+del you should see a list of processes that run an your computer... It often happens that ad-aware programs can't delete a file because it is opened and they can't end that process...My advice is to end the process by yourself.. If it keeps restarting (happens often) , reboot in safe-mode and run it the program again...Also a HijakThis run should be done..

andsome Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 WELCOME to NP. Have you tried Crap Cleaner? It is used by a good many forum members. I would also agree with the suggestion that you post a hijack this scan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtv_poison Posted June 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Well here's the thing, i've tryed ctrl alt delete and end processes, but it just shows a bunch of stuff and I have no idea what they are. They're all made up of scrambled letters it seems like. And yeah, i've tryed crap cleaner but this da** program still left behind some crap and i want it off but NOOO, some butt munch had to make it to where it's imbedded in your da** whatever it is.

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Well, if you have some left-over adware, have you tried an adware/spyware cleaner such as Spybot Search & Destroy ? It does an excellent job of removing/preventing malware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
