been searching the net for jobs and got on one site that bombarded me with about a million pop ups. now it has left an icon on my desktop and i dont no how to get rid of it :twisted:

http://www.novaload.net/forums/album_see.php?id=2385

when you click delete that message comes up.

ive searched computer for the program 'redirect4' and it found four matches. it let me delete two of them but comes up with that message when i try with the other two.

any1 help?

(the worst thing, it changed my homepage from novaload to some crap pop up infested website :twisted: )

first thing, view the properties for the files you found and make sure they are not write protected... then ctrl+alt+delete and view task manager and end the task of anything looking suspicious. then try deleting them again.

What sort of jobs are you looking for?

I find jobserve.com is a pretty good one.

jobcentreplus.co.uk

used that this morning while in a bad mood at work... phoned about an IT Support job to get more info and they put me in touch with the bloke about it. Phoned him... turns out its network support and web design, right up my street - he is gonna call me in for an interview when he has his short list made up.

:D Nice one.
