CiD popups
« on: April 10, 2007, 04:56:11 PM »
Hi, I think I posted this in the right place... I searched and didn't see any solutions on the board.

I have recently been getting popup advertisements when I use Internet Explorer.  They randomly popup and have "CiD" in the top.

In a quick google search, a solution that was suggested was to uninstall the "CiD Help" from the add/remove programs in the control panel.  I've uninstalled that... is it completely removed from my system now?

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

I have an Acer Aspire 5600 with Windows XP.  1.6 Ghz Intel Core Duo Processor T2050, 1G RAM and 100 GB hard drive.

SK,
We haven't forgotten you but our resident experts for Hijack logs are a bit backed up right now...

Here's what to do in the meantime.
Update all your protection programs.
Disconnect from the web and re-boot into safemode and run all your scans .
Re-boot , re-connect to the web and post back with a list of all your protection apps and any results they gave you...

CiD-Popups - The End

Yes, open The "Add/Remove Programs"-program.
If You have The "Messenger Plus! Sponsor Program" installed; remove It.
You don't have to remove The whole "Messenger Plus!"-thing from Your computer; just remove The "Sponsor Program".
This worked for Me (I had The CiD-sh*t).  8)

Really not sure how this post got by me, but in any case...

specialkel,
If you're still around, download AVG Free, Ad-Aware SE Personal, and Spybot - Search & Destroy.  Install all of them and update them to the latest definitions.  Then follow patio's instructions of scanning in Safe Mode.

Post back with your results as well as a new log.  However, please remove your current version of HijackThis and use this version instead.  Version 2.0 is still beta, which is basically another word for "software that doesn't work yet" and I prefer to not use it yet.
