iKap Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hi, Couple days ago I out of the blue got some Spyware/Adware which started giving me random pop-ups from internet explorer (i use firefox) So I did a bunch of scans using Ad-Aware, SpyBot, got Spyware Blaster, etc.. And also had to remove some fo the spyware files using HiJack This! Well after everything was cleaned out or i think was cleaned out.. any time I visit a page with embedded Windows Media Player(streaming clips from experience) my firefox just crashes when i try to play the file. SOME TIMES it will work, and wont crash.. but 95% of the time it crashes. I even did a CLEAN re-install of firefox, and I am still having this issue. This problem does not happen when i use Internet Explorer though, so im not quite sure what else it could be. Like i said, i've already done a FULL/CLEAN RE-INSTALL of Firefox but the problem still persists. I even googled it, but didnt get much luck because it seems like a very uncommon problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated, since this problem is getting VERY frustrating lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKap Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 Oh and I just noticed that its doing it for streaming windows media audio clips too, so im guessing its crashing when I go to any page that has embedded Windows Media Player files.
