what the fuck is going on ive had this all day, every time i try and load hotmail it redirects me, ive got ad aware 6 and Spyware, although neither are updated if this is even possible i dont know?

Its fucking ridiculous only hotmail is being targetted i mean its illogical really unless its affecting loads of ppl and i dunno about it. Also my scotty patrol thing is bringing up a Browser Helper Object every couple of fucking minutes a file called dcplmc.dll which i cant find ne trace of online....this sucks and im pissed off :|

anyonye help?

Load Winpatrol, then go into ie.helpers, then stop the dcplmc.dll file, and remove it, then go into start/search/files folders and type in dcplmc.dll, if you puter finds it, also delete it, then re-start your computer, if your using xp, use sys restore, and seyt it back to the last check point, then re start, if your using 98, dont forget to re start your puter after deleting the dll file, then do a search again to make sure it,s gone.
it is a redirect file, and probably not too harmfull, only if it,s part of an exe. file you have d/loaded, in which case post back here...

It,s basically a link file, some are very useful, and some are used as part of a exe. file, to re direct you to a site you may not want to visit, .dll,s can be friendly, or they can be used maliciously, as Buttsie, says, you can read about all about them , sometimes when you accidently delete a usable .dll file, you can easily replace it, by d/loading another from loads of sites....

Easy solution just join all of them

keep the spammers guessing

Yahoo for me(only for the games) but only because nobody told me about the email account with MSN - idiots closed it for non use without even 1 message to politely ask wether I was interested
