senoritafishIf you happen to be looking for song lyrics, avoid LetsSingIt dot com like the plague.
I think that's where all this adware crap on my computer came from. Also something nasty called BKDR_BERBEW.L, which likes to steal passwords. Thanks![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dipster, for turning me on to Housecall, which I've been running regularly. It keeps finding stuff that Spybot, AdAware and Norton are not finding, however, I think my machine is still not completely clean.
