Pest Patrol
 
I got more problems with the comcast toolbar spyware scan. I decided to search my computer for spware with pest patrol. Then there was a list saying what spyware I had. It said bonzi buddy, viewpoint toolbar and somekind of dialer. whats a dialer? And a tracking cookie?

Diallers use your modem to call some scam 1-900 number overseas. It can be a
real pain to get a refund because phone companies are usually willing
participants, telling you to get your money back directly from the criminals.

Tracking cookies are similar to regular cookies except many websites can use
them instead of just one, thereby tracking where you surf.

Is PestPatrol still trying to delete BearShare by "accident"? :p

PestPatrol will also delete LW unless you put it on the exceptions list. :D

Those results were on my other computer that doesnt have any p2p clients. The laptop and my newest one has limewire. When limewire showed up I deleted it on accident but it still worked. And when I search again bearshare shows up under category p2p and kazaa,grokster and something else shows up. i will show a screenshot. but why are programs i dont have show up?
