Angelo,

Start Spybot S&D, and then click the "Immunize" (icon, button). Then, on the bottom, use the drop-down menu, to set it to "Block all bad pages silently". I'm pretty sure the "Enable permanent blocking of bad addresses in Internet Explorer" is check, correct :-)

What was the things it fixed, {name(s) of files) Panda Software, that is

Hi Crazy one...thanx for your answer
You were right about the silent block of bad pages.....But the funny thing is that my SpyBot had the same setting before scanning my PC with Panda active scan and never gave me these problems.....Do you know for sure if Panda Is a reliable web site and scan??? i ask you that because other problems here since i scanned my pc there.......Have you idea how i can know when a web site is reliable?
Thanx again for your answer.......Bye

Angelo,

You're welcome.

"But the funny thing is that my SpyBot had the same setting before scanning my PC with Panda active scan and never gave me these problems"

By the same settings, before scanning. Do you mean, that you didn't have it set, to block silently, before scanning, and you didn't receive the warnings. If that's the case, did you have the scripting disabled, in IE. And enabled it, to do the scan, and then, didn't disable it again. Just a thought

"Do you know for sure if Panda Is a reliable web site and scan???"

Angelo, the only thing in my life, that I know, is for sure, is it will end one day. And not even sure/positive, when that will be :-( Have a good idea though ;-)~ Would I recommend it, as a place to scan a computer, yes. Files being used, when I've used it, are safe. Now remember, that's my opinion. People, have their own thoughts/opinions, good or bad, about all kinds of things. Just because, one sees it as red, and another one sees it as blue. Doesn't make either one wrong, it's just how they see it/ feel about it. I'm ranting shhhhhhhhh ;-)

"i ask you that because other problems here since i scanned my pc there.."

What problems, also, as I asked before, what files, were removed. Also, what did it say, after the scan was complete?

y.w.
