RSNet, an insidious program

[MrVicchio]

Do a search of your system, if you find an RSNet file, it will be in your program files, DELETE IT. You may have to Ctrl+Alt+Del and kill its process, also kill WScript.exe.

Basically this POS runs a random Ad pop up on your system,no matter you are doing. Pissess me right the fuck off.

I got it the other day, ran SpyBot and as far as I can tell it's gone

Funny, the pop ups start and stop with that running. Till I killed the RSNet file they would reappear every restart..

NEVER had Wscript run prior.

but you didnt try to disable the script that was running the problem you just nuked the school to get ride of the rats... overkill i believe it's called, oh well you have to get another school to make up for it or your computer will run funny

WScript.exe is an application in my windows directory. You sure its not a Windows 98 system file? It last modified from mid-late 2002.

Edit: And Its a damn system file. Dont delete it. You can double click it and tell it to stop running script after XXamount of seconds. Just set it to one.

I like ending random processes, 'tis fun, sometimes you kill spyware or speed up your PC a bit, other times you force a reboot, a little like russian roulette.
