Hi All,
I am having this problem with browsing from sometime.
During browsing, somehow, automatically a new network device installs on my computer. i am not having any network here and i do not use internet via any network. there is no physical network device installed in my motherboard, still i get this windows message saying that "A new network device has been found". and after that when i went to my network connections folder, there was this LAN connection made there, automatically and it was enabled. i checked device manager and there was this "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" installed there automatically.
anyhow i removed all these things and it keeps comming back. i have used Adware and cleaned my pc. still i am looking from advice from u guys. could u please guide me to any good softwares that help prevent these things comming into my pc via internet?
Thankyou

Have you ever right clicked the LAN icon, then clicked Disable ??
You need more protection than just Adware.
I use this-
at most computer stores,
including Office Depot, Office Max:
Spyware X-terminator
They say-
Spyware X-terminator will provide you with constant protection against Spyware, Adware, Dialers, Browser Hijackers, Trojans, Cookies, Key Loggers, Trackware, and other Malware while browsing the internet.Also, be sure to update any software online
after installation, and every 1-2 weeks.
Virus and Spyware scans work better in Windows Safe-Mode.

Do you have a firewall installed? That seems to be some kind of network protection. See:
