I think it would be a good idea to have a forum devoted to spyware and security issues. This may be part of the current software support forum but a specific forum just to this issue would be great. I just helped a buddy get rid of the about:blank spyware and it was a bitch. I wouild have appreciated a place to post my experience and get any info available. Anyone else have any thoughts on this.

Agree totally with Artzelda.

I think that there is a lot of interest in this topic and think that nforum members have a lot to contribute to this topic, would add virus infestation to this.

My experience is more like Artzelda's - helping friends remove crap from their machines after they went on the web essentially unprotected.

Think separate forum area would provide specific issue information, discussion of merits of different programs, registry techniques for removing some of the troublesome ones, etc.

good suggestion, Artzelda
