THE SCENARIO:

If your Browser is hijacked, the quickest way to close the Browser window is ALT+F4.

Whichever tool you choose, be sure that you keep the definition files updated AND read the warnings and alerts, some may impact the way your environment has run in the past.

For IE6, disable 3rd-party browser Extensions is an immediate workaround. Stops all the BHOs, Toolbars, Browser extensions from loading and starts a clean instance of IE.

Installation recommendations from the number one expert in Brower Issues :

Another thing that should be helpful is this, in terms of manually controlling the installation of items (such as unwanted toolbars, etc)...  Since I always encourage using the most updated version of IE, which is IE 6 with all Service Packs, this is the process:

IE - tools - Internet options - advanced - browsing ->  Uncheck "Enable install on demand (Internet Explorer)" as well as unchecking "Enable install on demand (Other)".  This means that auto installs for updates to IE and/or other interfaces and applications will require your manual intervention to complete.  This is my ideal choice, but we each make our own.

Upgrade to MS Java 3810 or uninstall MS JVM and install Sun's version of Java

For safe browsing it is best to set the browser to prompt for activeX, Java, and plugins.  The minor irritation is nothing compared to the disaster that can come with downloading malware.

NEVER permit the download or running of any EXE unless you are 100% sure you know what it is.

NEVER disable the firewall or anti-virus software except when necessary for the installation of items you know are safe

If you are not sure about a site; set security to high, and disable all scripting, until you check it out -- look at the source code.

"FREE" should always mean proceed with caution.

Memandangkan PC aku dalam keadaan always on [psl aku pasang radio pelan2 time tido], aku schedule spyware checker dan gak antivirus aku untuk jalan secara automatik [scan terus, bukan background scan] time aku tengah tido nyenyak setiap hari. Of course laa aku matikan monitor aku time tido. Nie untuk memastikan bahawa aklu dapat tido nyenyak tanpa dihantui masalah virus dan spyware.

Kalau korang nak tau apsal kekadang tu leh muncul website lucah tanpa kita mintak, tu la dier kejer spyware. So berhati-hatilah... sebab aku pernah kena time aku surf kat library. Nasib baik tak kantoi dgn librarian, kalau tak nanti tak pepasal aku kena halau lak...

Saya cuba nak uninstall winrar sebab jarang gunakannya. Selepas uninstall, saya periksa la foldernya dalam C. Folder itu masih ada. Jadi saya cuba delete secara manual tetapi tidak berjaya dan folder itu masih ada file seperti di atas. Apa yang patut saya lakukan?

Kadang-kadang benda macam ni kena pakai common sense. Sebagai contoh kalau kita cuba download cerita web tu akan minta download exe atau pdf atau certain exension. Kat situ better stop on the spot.  Kena cari website lain untuk download. Kalau nak pakai 360 internet security + browser extension tu pun ok tapi takut terlalu banyak false positive yang di'detect'.
