I could only find one review for Nuker it was from 2spyware.com they gave it a 1 1/2 out of 5 not recommended. I then scanned with Microsoft anti spyware found nothing , Spyware Doctor found nothing , and these are 2 of the highest rated spyware detectors on the market both 5 out of 5 , I also scanned with webroot spysweeper and nothing. Also scanned wit xoftspy it did detect Limewire as Adware I was actually impressed with the xoftspy. It detected the adware in the LimeWire basic installer that is in my download file and it also detected the BearShare installer neither of which are installed on my machine.The Pop up in basic is adware so technically it was right. Anyway I wouldn't worry about the Kazza thing it is a false positive from your spyware detectors. |
Hi Grandpa,
Certainly did your homework on that one and thanks for that.
I previously thought that the kazza was only reinstalling after I re ran limewire, partly true it does but it also reapears after I reboot but if it's nothing no probs and I guess that must be the same for the others you mentioned that saw the kazza bundlware.
I have just found out that when accessing international P2P's or any web sites for that matter from Thailand that are international the download speed will always be resticted due to something called CAT. Apparently all international traffic has to go through CAT by Thai law and that basically caps any speed potential you may have unless you are connecting to Thai sites that are held within Thailand, basically if I want international sites it is pointless suscribing to anything over 1 mb in Thailand at this time.
I am currently trying to access a DC++ hub that has been set up within Thailand by ex pats for this very reason that promises to realise my true connection speed but just my luck I have a lame router supplied by TOT that wont allow me "active" access and the site I need requires "active" only, so I can do passive on international sites but same slowmo. I have been advised to go and buy a branded router that will have a much better ADSL configuration package eg UPnp, port forwarding options etc.
Looking on the bright side I have learnt a hell of a lot during the past week in an area of computing I always considered to be a black art, its just annoying that this learning process always seems to = more cash, hopefully soon I will be able to do what I originally wanted when I got stung for $52 dollars by that limewire reseller and download full length movies and English TV,
Just out of curiosity Grandpa who is paying for you to test all these spyware packages, they all cost money right?
Thanks again for your support,
