Title: 180search assistant
Post by: josh deane on August 25, 2004, 04:54:31 AM

Recently through some sort of spyware  i think, i noticed this program called 180search assistant. it constantly launches pop ups at pretty much every site i visit and it is not only becoming incredibly annoying it is also slowing my computer considerabley.

I've tried uninstalling the program through Add/Remove Programs but it won't uninstall! is there any other way i can get rid of this pest of a program!???

Please Read This First - Viruses & Spyware (http://www.computerhope.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=14;action=display;num=1089181015)

Install the programs recommended. I suggest you properly configure them to make better use of the scanner. Refer to the manual in order to do so.
