please help its driving me insane

i used advanced vista optimiser to give my laptop a good clean out as i
do every week. but this time when i went to log on the diagnostic comes
and says either change proxy settings or try resetting local connection
setting. i tried resetting many a time which as done no good. web
address bar states where its going but the diag box comes on again.so in
the mean time while this is all going on a new tab keeps on opening by
its self and saying the same thing,this started to happen before i
cleaned my l.p but it was just redirecting to a blank page. that is why
i did the clean.anyhow resetting the lan did not work so i reset the
internet expolorer in the tools on the bar. which as worked but the same
thing is still happening with the tab ,but now its redirecting to all
the freebiee sites and it will not stop. i have spyware-adware-trojan
software on my l.p and still no good it did pick up 3 infections which
it sorted out, its driving me f*&^%*ng nuts please help

Hi,

I have no idea what "advanced vista optimiser" is, but I would see if it has
an "undo" function to fix the damage its done. Sounds like some malware has
taken over the system.

I have a feeling that your 'optimizer' is the malware.

Go to this web site, bookmark it and then use the e-mail contact link to
Mark Hastings, the author of the web site. In the e-mail, explain exactly
what has happened and supply the link for 'Advanced Vista Optimizer'..

Hi ,Rick and Mike further to this saga of mine, the programme in
question is Advanced Vista Optimizer 2008 and from there web site
selling point it is supported by microsoft. I would be happy to say the
problem was recified this morning, but as i log on, windows problem box
flashed up saying it can,t connect due to it can,t find any D.N.S. After
having a look round my network connections they had all been turned off
and messed about with. Basically i could not log on but the incoming
connection was still active if you get what i mean.For now the emergancy
is over, for now cheers both for all your input.Will keep you updated.

Anybody can copy the Microsoft Certified Gold Partner logo onto their
website.

Stay away from any program which promises to fix all ills. They never work
the way that the promises suggest..
