Title: CasinoPalazzo Pop Ups
Post by: Allen on June 26, 2004, 07:29:03 PM

The casinopalazzo pop Ups are really a pain, they always add a desktopn icon after their attacks.  Also, other pop ups accompany them saying that spyware and adware is detected on this computer.  Then it asks whether I want to be directed to a link to download a remover.  WEll, I follewed the advice found in these postings, but pop-ups still appear.  I am currently trying the trio method: adware->cwshredder->hijackthis, but I am stuck at hijackthis.  What do these readings represent? Am I suppose to rid some of them?  Which ones are good and which ones are bad?  Please, someone advise me.  Thank you.

Title: CasinoPalazzo Pop Ups
Post by: Vahlemon on July 01, 2004, 08:26:31 PM

i've had the same annoying popup Thing recently, and decided that the next time it pops i Hunt it down...

After some time, i've Discovered That it was somehow related to the Taskmgn.exe file, and the Creation date of this File coresponded  to the Moment where i first got it...

Had No problem with that %@#&*!($& Popup thing since then, so i think  that Taskmgn.exe is the Problematic File in all that, so just delete it( Need to end it in the Process window though before deleting)

Woops, forgot to say, Taskmgn.exe only seems to be in process window when you have teh Popup on Screen BTW  /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

...  if you had ad-aware 6 with ad-watch running you wouldn't get these things in the first place.
...  lots of people seem to have installed ad-awre 6 but don't have it set to block with ad-watch, just using it to scan now and then, really isnt as good.

No, most users are using the free download of Ad-Aware that dosen't have ad-watch....

Ad-Watch only comes with the paid version /wink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />
