Forum Rules (click here) Please search your topic before posting AND post in the correct section of the forum. I will move this thread. Search the word PEST using the search button above right. Basically, pest control has been broken for over a year now & the programmers have made no effort to repair it. It sees the magnet in LW & thinks its adware, etc. It doesn't work properly with p2p sharing programs. Even a spyware forum says pest control doesn't work properly! lol What's recommended is 1. Spybot - Search & Destroy (FREE), & 2. ad-ware (FREE)

Cool

p2p is considered spyware but your spyware program should have the option to let you ignore this
WARNING DO NOT DOWNLOAD FILES THAT ARE 851.7 IN SIZE Those are the ones that are infected with adware
