Richard, Those spyware programs entering your PC without your knowledge are insidious, covert and operate without your knowledge.
I suggest you invest in a good/reputable spyware removal SW program to remove it (you might be surprised how many are residing in your PC). Googling "spyware removal" will provide you with a host of spyware removal programs. If you wish, please contact me offline if you want to know my preferred one.

I can't remove it from the system. Within ADD/Remove programs it does now show up to remove....any ideas? The PC works fine otherwise, it's just a nuisance popup that wont die... Thnaks in advance. Richard, From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marko Radojicic Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2007 2:03 PM To: Ken Javor; [email protected] Subject: RE: 802.11 & similar wireless links, interference between Ken, If you want to avoid interference in 802.11, use 11a. There are many more channels available than 11b/g (exact details are dependant on the country you are operating in). The new DFS requirements have effectively eliminated a lot of these channels but 11a may still be the best option for your application. If you are forced to use the 2.4GHz 11b/g band, there are only three (mostly) non-interfering channels: 1, 6 and 11. Typically channel 6 will have the highest TX powers and thus the best performance. Channels 1 and 11 typically have less TX power capability in order to meet the regulatory band-edge requirements. There is some limited amount of interference between channels 1 & 6 and 6 & 11 but not huge. Channels 1 & 11 have no interference. There is much less channel-channel interference even between adjacent channels in 11a. The ultimate non-interference strategy, of course, is to use both 11b/g and 11a. Most WLAN enterprise solutions have planning software that help users select the AP density & location, channel selection, TX power setting, etc. You may want to consider this option if your application is complex. ...Marko From: Ken Javor [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2007 5:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: 802.11 & similar wireless links, interference between Slightly different question, based on answer below. If you had multiple 802.11 links in the same area, would it be possible to assign fixed "channels" to the most important ones, and exclude less important links from intruding on those? Also, could other links such as Bluetooth be controlled so as not to occupy the same bandwidth? -- Ken Javor Phone: (256) 650-5261 > From: "Barker, Neil" <[email protected]> > Date: Tue, 14 Aug 2007 16:51:06 +0100 > To: 'Ken Javor' <[email protected]>, [email protected] > Subject: RE: 802.11 & similar wireless links, interference between > > Ken, > > I cannot quantify the effects, but I have a few observations:- > > A great deal will depend on the volume of 'traffic' on the link; occasional > data downloads from a host or server are likely to be much more robust than > applications such as streaming video. > As an example, one recent 802.11 product that streams video has performed > well on tests in the factory, but suffered from significant degradation at a > trade show where there were undoubtedly many other devices using the same > technology. > Much depends on the local configuration; where a device is operating in > infrastructure mode, it is often easy to change channels, but where a device > is in ad-hoc mode it is not uncommon for it to be set to a default of > Channel 1, which is consequently heavily populated. > Perhaps somebody who knows more about data density and the maths of channel > sharing can provide some correlation between data rate and the probability > of degradation dependent on the population distribution of WLANs operating > (given that a typical transmitter has up to about 300m range). > > Best regards > > Neil R.
