    My newbie friend complained of a tremendous amount of
    prono pop ups. Turned out there was a rather agressive
    program called "rapid blaster ". I suspect my friend downloaded
    the program "accidentally ".
    What does anyone know about this spyware program ?
    Sybot says a bit and lists a website. However a warning if you visit the website you will be indundated with pop up ads of various types.
    :confused: :)

    what else do you need to know?

    you've got the url, and you've been there and seen what happens

    Patrick at SpyBot has classified it as a browser hijacker, BHO (browser helper object) that "runs in background and connects in short intervals to the internet. "

    it redirects you and displays other pages than you requested.

    it's function is to offer ****.

    what else is there to know?

    :)
