I don't have an anti virus programme, and my computer won't let me surf the internet, instead a page comes up warning me that it's too dangerous to surf normally, so it's a bit of a pickle.

Yea, if you don't have an anti-virus program, those popups ARE the virus. Go to a computer where you can utilize google and type in the exact message you get from the virus, and search it. You'll get hundreds of sites explaining how to fix it step by step.

AND USE A DAMN ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM!!!!
It's not hard, people.

It's free.

Can someone help me use this Delta The Playstation Autorunner? It just gives me this:

..and I don't know what to do with it.

thats pretty obscure. better off finding a board specifically about whatever that is and asking there.

Well someone here on MB (I think it was Urban) recommended it to me, so I was thinking someone here might know. This is not the only site I've posted this question, though.

What is it?

debaserr · 08-02-2010, 07:15 PM

Then this thread might interest him: Help me with this Delta The PlayStation AutoRunner! - Emuforums.com

While simultaneously insulting him.

i was gonna post that earlier haha.

Ah well, I'm not condemning him yet.. he might have already seen it anyway. It would be hard to miss, being the first result on Google when you search the name of the program.
