CAN'T DELETE IN Favorites and Spybot Questions

[Sailfin_Sarah]

Hey ppl! So I need some help and i thought that i might get a quick response on a new thread. So here i go. One day i went into my favorites to check out my friends website (its saved in there) And i saw all these links that i NEVER PUT IN THERE! I know this for a fact cause 1) i dont have the money to go to an online casino and 2) I'm not interested in INTERACCIAL RELATIONSHIPS!!! My question is this: How can i delete them, because when i try to delete them using right-click NOTHING HAPPENS and when i try to delete it by going through favorites filepath (ie C:\Documents and Settings\username\favorites) I don't see them in the Favorites folder, maybe they're hidden (if so how do i access them?) or maybe its a virus either way can ANYONE HELP!!!!- Thanks sarah
OH YEAH and spybot question: In the bottom left corner there is a toolbar, my question is: Is it searching my computer for the spyware or is it scanning spyware already in my computer?- Thanks agn Sarah

Can't you just click the Favorites menu and then click "organize favorites" and delete it from there? You should.
But likely you have spyware

So good luck with that first!

maybe.... But you guys did help

I have spybot S&D so thanks for :approve: confirming that it was a good choice and i read those 2 threads, they helped with other problems but not with favorites.... I think i just have to keep running spybot... It worked last night I mean it got rid of the favorites, but when i turned off my computer and then started it again this morning, :dead: they were back so i think this is something that goes deep and once deleted comes back. OH and i tried the organize favorites deal and even though it didn't get rid of unwanted favorites it did help me organize some stuff so thanks lol
LOL so im gonna keep running checks and looking in task manager, system32 and Internet Explorer for any weird things, well thanks again guys- Sarah :bounce:

I'll get rid of the spyware if its the last thing i do... or my computer does BE AFRAIF VERY AFRAID! :evil:

Sarah read the post about HiJackThis that I linked to earlier. Then post a log as instructed and someone will help you out.

Also try Firefox for your browser.
