Curious on how it "infects" computers! Does it come from making searches on the internet?? I went to the website the other person posted but didn't go into any of the tabs----yet!

My question .... How do you know what links are safe? Like the one posted here by njbchbum. Is that a safe link?

In my case, it was some type of infection, virus or worm that I downloaded innocently by clicking on a link provided by a trusted friend. It seems to have run its course, fingers crossed.

when i want to research a topic on the internet i go to my norton search engine that comes with the norton security suite i use. it will then list the suggested websites; and each site indicates whether it is 'norton safe' and can be clicked on with reasonable safety. if you want to do more reading on this dnschanger malware, here's the results list from my norton search for 'dnschanger': dnschanger - Norton Safe Search [cut and paste link if clicking it does not redirect you there]

If you continue to send e-mails to all those in your address book for Viagra and such, change your e-mail password. If that doesn't take care of it, let me know and I'll PM you a link to a free malware removal program. Hope this helps!

My plan is to convert to gmail which most people seem to feel is superior to other providers. Friends in my address book are easy to notify. But it is such a pain to change my e-mail address with banks and credit card companies and real estate agents and homewatch and vets and doctors and dentists and gas and hydro and condo corp and department stores and hotels and accountants and financial planners, etc., etc., etc. Literally hundred of places to notify. And most of them aren't in my contact list. Oh well, I'm retired. ![]()
