Bargains.exe?

Tarron_D · 13th May 2003, 22:20

How the hell do i get rid of Bargains.exe? Its always in my processes and isn't in msconfig.

Another thing: How do i get internet explorer to stop taking me to the "Error Page Assistant" when i go to websites? It happens all the time and mostly on pages that work fine. I get where im going, all is good for a few seconds, then suddenly im taken to this horrible piece of shit!

Urghh . . . Bargain Buddy nastiness.

Use Spybot Search & Destroy dude. Loads better than Ad-Aware, imho, and even better than Ad-Aware Plus, but free.

Er, every time you load the page it displays three random mirrors, so your instructions won't be much use

Try the following link, it worked just fine about a minute ago...

IS this related to Bonzy\Bonzi (SP) buddy?

No, Bonzi Buddy and Bargain Buddy are two different spyware products.
http://www.pchell.com/support/bonzibuddy.shtml

Bonzi comes with AudioGalaxy, KaZaa, and others.
Doxdesk doesn't list Bonzi, but it's more of an unwanted annoyance than anything else.

Spybot S&D detects and removes both of them.

btw, each time you download the Spybot S&D detection updates (Includes), you need to re-immunize so that you're immunized against the new/modified spyware.
The Immunize and Permanent Blocker features are truly awesome!
