TLOS4me Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 OH! That elite bar is some nasty adwear! I got is on my laptop also, I think it was becasue I was using the Yahoo Toolbar / Popup Blocker. I did a google search and found some info on removing it, it's rather complex. I tried the procedure they specified and I still have issues with popup ads for party poker and etc. I will email the procedure to you that I found on google. If it still doesn't work, you might just have to reload the OS. Let me know how it goes for you, OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khun_lung Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 How can I remove EliteBar?My computer has got the Elitebar on IE bar and I coundn't find way to remove it. Please help me please.... I wish I could tell you. If you right-click your mouse on that toolbar what does it say? The other thing I might suggest is to download free spyware programs. Contact me if you need help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickbseattle Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Well, first try this 1.Empty Temporary Internet files and Cache. 2.Look in Temp net files folder for remaining files. 3.go into Tools for IE and change homepage back to yahoo.com, msn.com, etc If you have a virus scanner update it, restart explorer, and rescan it. Some of these like a similar "searchmall.com toolbar" are sneaky and you have to keep your eyes open. Another option, Use Mozilla search engire, its able to block many viruses cause they are engineered to attack IE(internet explorer) Mozilla is free, by the way. Hope these tips help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedTriple Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Try this program http://www.spychecker.com/download/download_hijackthis.html I cannot promise anything, and be very careful what you delete. Elite Toolbar is a hijack program, these can be very hard to remove. If you are unsure about which entries to delete, post the log file here, or mail it to me, and I will do my best to help. No guarantees though... Good luck Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedTriple Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Boeky, Adware is great but it won't remove Elite toolbar, or in fact many of the hijackers around. Hijack this is about the best there is for that type of spyware, but it is not as easy to use. Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedTriple Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Babyoiy, Some websites that you visit will send this program to your PC as a way of funding their website. You should try to protect yourself with Adaware and Spybot. There are other programs out there, but these are the two I use most of the time. HijackThis is good at getting rid of the more persistent spyware programs, but sometimes, you need to reformat. Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyoiy Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Im yahoo addicted... I got yahoo popup blocker and Yahoo anti spy as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedTriple Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Pop up blocker won't stop these kinds of programs. Anti Spy might.... but I doubt it, they are ususally downloaded as part of something else. They don't generally do any damage, they are just a pain in the ass. They can cause your internet connection and your PC to run very slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLOS4me Posted January 16, 2005 Report Share Posted January 16, 2005 Dear all hansom Guys and beautiful Girls, Yes, I am a handsome guy, khup khun na khup. :-) Glad things worked out but re-formatting the HDD and re-loading the OS always sux. You may want to try a personal fire wall, Zonealarm seems to be pretty good, (www.zonealarm.com). It's free, maybe you try it? Of course I didn't get it going on my PC until *after* I got zoinked by the elitebar crap. :-( Maybe it would have helped.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
