right ok fair enough i spose its wise to do it once in a while
i like to run stuff like spybot often , is there way to make sure this doesnt happen everytime as i cant keep logging into all my stuff all the time0 -
Yes: replace Spybot with SpywareBlaster, then install a browser that remembers your passwords for you!steveo3002 wrote: »is there way to make sure this doesnt happen everytime[?]

like firefox 3.1 not 3.5 as not all addons work with 3.5
and I would use malwarebytes antispyware aswell as spywareblaster.0 -
You may like to consider using https://lastpass.com/ as a solution to remembering your log ons, it's alot better than anything else I've tried that might do the job. I was always impressed by the Opera Browser 'Wand' functionality, however, this is much better.
It also means that when I use programs such as the AntiMalware variety, or those that delete various MRU's I don't have to worry about my Usernames and Passwords, I just change my lastpass details now and again and I'm happy.
HTHIt could have been worse. At least source code's not combustible, or you can bet somebody at McAfee would have lit it.0
