...wow Adaware : SE should do it and there is also various antivirus programs that can delete those.

adaware shut my lap top down 4 times when it was running... so it is crap.  SpySweeper did the trick, thanks again Brad! :D

Just me, or are all the girls in the Olympics damn hot? People say that you can't 'make' yourself look much different/better than you normally are, but I think all that working out must do something. It doesn't even matter what sport it is, they are all just about perfectly in shape.

And they all have such amazing bodies. Kinda disproves all the people that say you can't get to a certain size just by working out :) No beer bellies on the guys or girls, everyone's so fit.

The guys aren't too bad either :)

thanks a lot brad! :)

yeah i just did that... i'm still getting pop ups and i thought it got rid of it... well i shall just have to wait and see... damn iconfun site...

It removes them from your computer, but it doesn't prevent them from coming back to my understanding. Besides, if you used Firefox you wouldn't have these problems :p

ok i have windows xp... and i can't get the msdos prompt to work...

thats because win xp doesnt run a gui over dos like in win 9x.  the dos prompt is just a real crappy dos emulation.

sam... i tried to "C:tracking cookie" didn't work.  (mind you i rarely use that msdos prompt thing.  also spybot just won't fix it, it freezes up.  but i did have almost 200 problems and it's down to 22! woo!

brad... no i haven't tried that yet. perhaps i will.

bradley007 Posted at 5:44 am on Aug. 19, 2004

have u tried a search for the file?  or go into msdos and type C:tracking cookie, it should show where they are in that and then u can delete whatever u want.
