You won't be able to find it because it's well hidden, uses various names and is
integrated into your ISP's software. Users find out about it being installed after
they attempt to install a fw/av app, when up pops a message that you can not install
the product because another varied name same type is already installed and running.
That when they say WTF, I never had that installed and attempt to seek it out without
good results.

As previously mentioned, I have helped others out in their quest to seek and
destroy and it's not a walk in the park.

BTW, AT&T uses CA (Computer Associates) software and CA is a Partner of Authentium.
Here's a list of Authentiums Partners:

I did not use any apps or programs from ATT only their modem. The file

I tried the extract thing it did not work
Another problem: What causes the folders changing types? Example: some of
my folders changed to Outlook Express like the Outlook Express is pictured
on the Desktop An envelope with an arrow around it. Mine did that while I
was using the computer I noticed it. Then I shut it down when I was done for
the night. When I re-started it the next day, the desktop was back to
normal.

I know, I couldn't help being the lovable myself that I am

b)
Even I do not have the patience to go through ALL the posts in
this thread, but if you post a **concise description** of the
current problem(s) as a direct follow up to this reply, I *WILL*

Be aware, however, that the general consensus in this friendly

thanatoid,
Have you ever heard that SPS? Do you want a pity party? You came to the
wrong person. If you don't read the whole string then you do not know the
complete problem. No wonder they tell people not to take your advice.That
is, if in fact they do. I guess YOU have a real problem. Excuse me for
capitalizing your name!! In answer to doing a *concise description*, Excuse
me? I am not going to start a new string for every problem that starts up
during another problem just to satisfy your wishes.

Hi MEB,
I had to get off the computer because I had to go to a meeting, so I did
not get back on until around 10PM
I did not stay on long. I was tired and had to go to bed. It is almost
impossible to do anything with no sleep. I am trying to get back to my old
schedule. Evidently, I have not tried HiJack yet.

OK. For that problem of pop-ups, it's best to post a HiJackThis report,

Hi PCR,
I even wonder if he knows that SPS means "Self Praise Stinks!!" He
calls himself *thanatoid*. Maybe he should really spell it another way. Oh,
well, that is my opinion. The word I am thinking of starts with an *h* and
it leaves out the *t*. I hope you can figure out what I mean, even though it
is spelled way different. If you cannot figure it out, let me know and I
will email you. I am tired and I have lost all patience for anyone's bull.
I have been telling people face to face what I think of their bull
lately. I wonder if he is married and has children. Those are who I feel
sorry for if he behaves like that to them.

DIR C:\Win98_49.cab /s

Here is how it might go...
C:\>DIR C:\Win98_49.cab /s
Directory of C:\OPTIONS\CABS
WIN98_49 CAB 1,802,240 04-23-99 10:22p WIN98_49.CAB

Then your directory would be... C:\OPTIONS\CABS.

(c) Replace the following with your own directory, if different...

EXTRACT /d C:\Options\Cabs\Win98_49.cab Tiki.htm

Here is the result I get. What did it say for you...?...

C:\>EXTRACT /d E:\Options\Cabs\Win98_49.cab Tiki.htm
Cabinet Win98_49.cab
04-23-1999 10:22:00p A--- 393 tiki.htm

That is just a display-- no extract was done.
You may stop, & just report what you saw, or...

(d) IF you get that, then your Win98_49.cab is fine. So, do this EXTRACT...

"EXTRACT /L C:\Progra~1\Common~1\Micros~1\Statio~1 C:\Options\Cabs\Win98_49.cab Tiki.htm"

Copy everything between the quotes (but not the quotes) & past it to the DOS screen with that 3rd button. That should be ONE line with THREE spaces: one after "EXTRACT", one after "Statio~1" & one after Win98_49.cab.

MAKE SURE EVERYTHING BETWEEN THE QUOTES IS ON THE DOS LINE, or you might extract the WHOLE cab, instead of just "Tiki.htm"! No good!

That was the SFN (Short File Name) for...
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Stationery

(e) Open Explorer to that folder, & rename "Tiki.htm" to "Tiki Lounge.htm".

That should do it!


| Another problem: What causes the folders changing types? Example:
| some of my folders changed to Outlook Express like the Outlook
| Express is pictured on the Desktop An envelope with an arrow around
| it. Mine did that while I was using the computer I noticed it. Then I
| shut it down when I was done for the night. When I re-started it the
| next day, the desktop was back to normal.

Hi Everyone that tried to help with this problem,
I could not get it straightened out and it was becoming too time
consuming. I have decided on going back to the last backup I did with Drive
Image. This is the Drive Image program that came with the computer. I will
only have to get a few of the items that I entered after that last backup.
The drive Image that I have only allows one backup besides the Factory
backup. I will put the stuff on my thumb drive and then reinstall the stuff
from that. I will then put the 3 troublesome websites that may be giving me
pop ups in the restricted zone. They are, lop, drive cleaner and error sure.
The last two are the ones that wanted to download to my computer. The lop
one was in my registry history. How it got there I think I know. I told
about an incident a couple of years ago that may have caused it. I will
come back and tell how things go. I will also come back and ask more about
*HiJackThis*.
Thank you everyone that helped me. Yes, you did help. I know of more
programs that I can use in the future. I always learn from this group. God
bless all of you.
