wagonman10 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 Greetings to you all. I have been with computers since DOS 3.3 and Sinclair Spectrum. I believe I have a decent knowledge of computers and satellite networking. I clean my machine to my knowledge, erasing unwanted cookies, recent list, Temp Int Files, you know, the routine. I also engage System Mechanic and CleanDisk to sweep all traces of my cyber space visits. Then I erase paper bin content, restart and immediatly disengage restrui.exe, the restore point robot, restart and with this deleting all former restore point data, I like to think my machine is reasonably clean. Not so. After our program has been doing its things, it always reports the existence of cookies, which I thought I had deleted. Where were they hiding? Any ideas?

wagonman10 Report post Posted May 29, 2009 Thank you. Question not answered. I clean my machine, I know how, and your program still detects unwanted objects. I want to know where in my machine your program found these objects, since I deleted all before scanning. Or so I hoped. Sincerely yours, Wagonman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wagonman10 Report post Posted May 29, 2009 Thank you for swift reply. I am not expressing myself clearly, I understand. I clean my machine, I believe I know how, as indicated in first message. All my security programs, except yours, tell me there are no unwanted cookies left. All are deleted. If I then restart the computer and run all sec.programs again, all programs, except yours, inform me only wanted cookies exist. Your program finds cookies I myself cannot find. It is a mystery.

wagonman10 Report post Posted June 21, 2009 I understand all that. My question is: Where are they? Why cannot I find them? Happy summer !! shore guard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jahn Report post Posted June 21, 2009 Windows purposely hides certain files and folders - you may have to "unhide" system and protected files in folder options. Then, follow the file path listed in the SAS log. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wagonman10 Report post Posted June 21, 2009 Done. I delete everything I find. SAS still finds objects. Heavy. Cool. My machine is spooked. I am very thrilled. !! Sincerely yours, wagonman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
