Submariner85 Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 For the last 2 days, whenever I would start my computer, Norton would find a Trojan called Adclicker.Trojan.It would delete it itself but the damn thing is one of those things that copies itself in your registry so it's hard to get rid of.After searching Symantec and a few other places, I tried a Safe Mode scan after disabling system restore (you have to do this or the trojan will duplicate itself), I couldn't find anything that said adclicker.trojan in the registry.I did however find a file under hkey_current user, software, microsoft, windows, current version, run that was called Dhaxi.exeThis turned out to be the culprit. Deleted it and all fine now.

Submariner85 Posted February 20, 2006 Author Posted February 20, 2006 Cool. Cause I hate having to manually find these stupid ass trojans and other url search hooks.
Guest galejt Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 And get rid of Norton. It's a piece of shit.

Submariner85 Posted February 20, 2006 Author Posted February 20, 2006 I get Symantec Corporate Edition and McAfee for free through the military. The reason I'm using Norton now is that when I had McAfee installed, my friggin PC wouldn't shut down normally.This is where I download Mcafee:http://www.mcafee.com/dodbut you have to have a navy.mil email address to get it.Cool huh?
Travis Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 I thought this was a thread about disliking condoms. I can comment on that.
Submariner85 Posted February 20, 2006 Author Posted February 20, 2006 Why is a guy taking a shit in your sig? LOL. Does look like it right?That's Mike Patton formerly of Faith No More.
Willie G. Moseley Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 RE Faith No More: As irrelevant as Courtney Love. Their guitarist (Jim Martin? I'm too old to get motivated to research such) was exhibited a minimal amount of talent, and when Patton would snarl "We care a lot!" I didn't believe him, and what's more, our band lampooned that song, substituting "Who gives a ****?" for "We care a lot" (try it, it fits).
Steve Haynie Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Oh, Willie, Faith No More had a good album, The Real Thing, that was worth listening too for that year. While there was a love-hate thing going on with the rap in Epic, there was some cool jamming on that album with stuff like Zombie Eaters. Sure, Jim Martin was not the greatest, but he was in one of those Bill and Ted movies. Wasn't that enough to prove his... excellence?The drummer from Faith No More, Mike Bordin, went on to be Ozzy Osbourne's drummer for a few tours. Apparently there was some talent in the band.
jsbabinec Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Norton is useless.Mike Patton did not sing on "We Care A Lot", that was their previous forgettable singer. I think that "The Real Thing" had its moments.
Submariner85 Posted February 20, 2006 Author Posted February 20, 2006 You guys are funny. Faith No More was ok. They were different. And not a guitar driven band of course. I didn't like the song that made them famous (Epic), or any rap for that matter, but they have some decent songs like Evidence, Ashes to Ashes, Last Cup of Sorrow, Midlife Crisis, Naked in front of the computer. Patton is a weirdo, but I like him. His other band Mr Bungle flat out sucks with their lounge singer style music. BTW, I learned Last Cup of Sorrow in about 5 minutes. The solo consists of exactly 15 notes. But it's still a cool song.....to me. This thread is a good example of closed mindedness. No offense. It started as a thread about a Trojan, turned into a Norton bash and then a Faith No More Bash. People who use McAfee hate Norton and vice versa, as goes with music styles. I said I hate rap so I guess I'm a hypocrit. Damn me to hell.
Jeff R Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 FYI: Borden also played drums on Jerry Cantrell's Degradation Trips Vol. I and II, with Robert Trujillo on bass (another Ozzy touring alumnus).So did anyone else other than me and Haynie play the hell out of The Real Thing the year it came out, but haven't listened to it since? LOL
Guest galejt Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 I don't use Norton because its a piece of shit.
Jack C Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 I didn't realize this thread was about viruses, condoms or Faith No More. Now this is an annoying Trojan:
