Can porn link show up on computer without visiting the site. Porn keeps showing on computer.?

Question

There is no evidence of porn in history. I discovered the one link for zoosextv when I went to right click on the bottom tab of Internet explorer at bottom of page and it showed frequent sites visited and the zoosextv was there I clicked on it wondering what it was and it came to the search page and the link was high lightened in purple instead of blue like someone has visited it. Also the myga toolbar has been on there and appeared somehow. I went to look something up and the history showed up of past searches not porn related but then a list popped up for just seconds and went away and it was porn suggestions or past searches but it was a separate history list and wouldn't stay there. Then I found a link to gamcore.com. My husband denies any of this and we got in a huge fight over it he keeps saying he didn't do it. I said I didn't care about it I just don't like being lied to. He knows I prefer him not to do that stuff and he tells me all the time that looking at someone other than me is being unfaithful and he hopes I would feel the same so he said he never looked up these sites even though the computer shows evidence of someone possibly doing so. So any suggestions. He claims he got mad cuz I kept asking and didn't believe. Yes I have trust issues due to being in a very abusive relationship for seven years before him. Thanks

Cool off a bit there love...

The problem is using Internet Explorer: it is the absolute worst at controlling what gets returned, and what that can do once inside your system.



Hubby may very well be telling the truth.



I strongly suggest you start by doing the following:

Try "MalwareBytes" to clean up your system:

http://www.malwarebytes.org/

(free version has no "real-time" shield)



Next, use a browser worth a dam.

Get Firefox as your default browser & use it for all tasks.

Modify it so you control what's being returned.

FIREFOX: Tools> Options> Privacy> top drop slot set to "Firefox will use custom settings..."> Check 'Accept Cookies from sites' &

►Un-Check 'Accept 3rd Party cookies'.



A good collection of effective security & privacy add-on's (Official Mozilla) is here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/collections/dunbar-pappy/dunbarpappy/

►"AdBlock Plus" ( ☛AdBlock must now be modified: http://www.ghacks.net/2013/07/31/how-to-configure-adblock-plus-malware-social-media-button-and-tracking-blocking/ )

► At minimum, get the #1 item for malware prevention: "NoScript", which constrains automagically fetching & deployment of potentially tainted assets, and offsets the Microsoft forced install if it's rubbish.

Bookmark and refer to this page for how it works, and how to use it when sites don't function and you need to "loosen" script permissions : http://noscript.net/features#contentblocking Look under the heading "Options", about 2/3 down.

Porn doesn't just show up. Someone put it there, but it might not have been a person, it could be malware. I'm not sure why malware would put porn on your computer, though, so that sounds a little suspicious.



Try using Firefox instead, not because it's immune to malware but at least it has some extra safeguards built in. I would remove IE from the equation for a while. ALso run a few anti virus checks. A good trustworthy antivirus app can be found here:

Answer 3

These are Malwares/Viruses do you have an anti virus on board? If yes! run the antivirus and let it scan your PC for any malwares/spyware/viruses. If found it will prompt you with instructions to remove it. Hope this helps! Regards, Bhupesh Mansukhani(MVP,Windows) Try running your pc in safe mode this is how you do it! Using the F8 Method: 1. Restart your computer. 2. When the machine first starts again it will generally list some equipment that is installed in your machine, amount of memory, hard drives installed etc. At this point you should gently tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with a menu. 3. When you have the menu on the screen. Select the option for Safe Mode using the arrow keys. 4. Then press enter on your keyboard to boot into Safe Mode. Once you are in safemode try running the A/v program to scan for viruses.

Answer 4

Porn Show

Answer 5

Sometimes viruses gotten from anywhere can fill your computer with links and programs to access porn. Their objective is to get it so that you click these links and get even more viruses.



I recommend you scan your computer with an anti-virus program.



The virus could be from anywhere too, not just porn. My brother once downloaded a free game on my computer and next thing I knew there was porn all over the place. I had to get a whole new computer.

Answer 6

Go on line into tools then internet option when the window comes up it says delete cookies/history and temp internet files click on delete (don't worry you wont do any harm) then in tools again at the top it says delete browser history delete them also. while you in tool look to see if you have a pop up blocker if so click on the pop up setting and set them to high, if there isn't one there you can download it from Yahoo. then run you anti-virus to make sure you haven't a virus.



BTW Yes they can pop up without going into the site, they are attached to a non porn site which may have been visited by your husband without him knowing and attached themselves to a cookie



All the best

Hey there,

You can download the latest version of Mozilla Firefox from here http://j.mp/1p6kqGa



Mozilla Firefox is one of the world's most popular web browsers and, to me, it's the best.

It works very well.

Cheers ;)
