Launcher Security Gab, please everyone read!

[DrNeo]

hey guys,I am not quite sure of that but I think that there is a security gab in the launcher,

Since Outspark Launcher is using an internet explorer component, and I am afraid they are using it as it is, I think hackers are using that to hack to me and maybe you!

check out your task manger, if you have something like this :



please vote for yes, otherwise its ... you guess it

Note: there is no open Internet explorer windows, they open by they selves and sometimes show some advertising sites and sometimes blocked sites >.<

What do you exactly mean with "hack"? Could you be more precise?... Please explain.

[DrNeo]

yea, after the picture Iam saying that advertising sites open sometimes that what I mean, maybe its more like virus than being a kind of hacking

err, no. You are infected.

well, i want to get as many replies as I can before I decide that I am infected, because I had that thing before and after formating

Not completely sure, but sounds like you've just got some spyware, tricky litter buggers those can be at times depending on the skill of the devolopers, any other programs you've DLd since you reformatted, or any, for lack of better terms, "shady" websites you visit often?

[DrNeo]

for programs I have downloaded some programs and I am going to remove them and try to delete everything and then i'll see, and thanks for your interest and help :D
