I've got spybot and it has done well or removing the spyware stuff. However, about everyother day, Bookedspace keeps getting back on my pc. How can I fix this problem. I have my firewall running, but somehow it keeps getting past it. Keep in mind, I'm somewhat computer illerate.<br /><br />When I set my firewall on max protection, I then have trouble getting into this site as well as others that I visit frequently.

BookedSpace seems to come from FreeWire, FreeMP3Player, and MThree MP3 to WAV converter. Whichever of these programs you are using, uninstall it and use a different program that isn't laden with spyware.<br />Your firewall will not protect you from spyware - you 'choose' to install it yourself.

Re: Spy crap info

Paul, I've looked for those that you mentioned. I can't find them anywhere. My puter came with the media player. This crap just started happening after I put Spybot in.<br /><br />Seems like every morning around 5am, it gets downloaded. Then when I go online, the pop ups start. <br /><br />Where can I go on my PC to locate this problem?
