I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.

*sigh* its not spyware, spyware doesnt cause that to heppen, its a virus or malware. it wouldnt be in your documents either, it'd be in program files, or maybe in your registry

I'm IN my program files. nothing out of the ordinary. Now just checked everything else and nothing peculiar is there. Errr.

MoonlitSunshine

Hidden files? I'm grasping at straws here, I never have to deal with this sorts thing.

Er, where would a file hide?

MoonlitSunshine

*sigh*

When you search for files, or you're looking at a folder, some of the files are hidden. To find them, select "show hidden files" in tools; folder options

As shown here.




I don't think they'll be in there, but if you want to check anyway. You'd be better off running a virus scan
