Hijack This!

[Lyte]

This is a new one for me, called Hijack This

Discription

"HijackThis lists the contents of key areas of the Registry and hard drive--areas that are used by both legitimate programmers and hijackers. The program is continually updated to detect and remove new hijacks. It does not target specific programs and URLs, only the methods used by hijackers to force you onto their sites. As a result, false positives are imminent, and unless you're sure about what you're doing, you always should consult with knowledgable folks before deleting anything. "

Has anyone used this?

I've never used it personally bu alot of people swear by it.. often, I hear, it's been the only way to correctly pinpoint a problem and solve it.

I've used it before. It's real good to find adware that's hiding out on your system.

But you have to know what your doing when using Hijack This cause it shows good and bad results.

A buddy of mine used HT and deleted some stuff he shouldn't. He spent most of the week end reloading software on his computer! lol
