Need some cpu help :(
 

Well I aim. And I don't know how it happened but I ended up getting sent a program it said "catch osama game" or something like that. My McAfee does not see it as a virus, but what it does is randomly sends people messages that are on my list. Not only that, it keeps downloading. :( Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have gone to add/remove programs to remove, but it just redownloads..

Thanks. :(

ahh, I'll ask him if/how he got rid of it whenever I talk to him again.

It's not a virus per se because it isn't self propagating or have any payload. It's just annoying adware crap.

ive never heard of it but its Seems to be like Spyware ----. I would download spybot and run that on your computer. It works great for getting spyware off your PC.
