Nobody needs Spyware stormer as TheBFG said, remove it
Yes in todays internet enviroment you do need some type of spyware removal
tools and Norton isn't it.Ad-Aware ans Spybot are the two leaders download
them both.
Sometimes,when you remove malware it will stop your TCP/IP
stack from working (Internet connection).
Winsock or LSP-fix will correct the problem,Download first.
Note to anyone using NOD32 Anti-Virus software,Do Not delete the
"imon.dll" this fix reports,That is your e/mail scanning engine.
YES-You need more than 1 malware program,I use all of these.
