Browserbar Check
Some little info for you surfers out there. In my logs a lot of visitors appear using a browser with a BHO. This is precisely whtat this site is about, removing that junk. I'll give a few examples of malicious browser helper objects. When you have one of those go here and place a Hijackthislog on the forum
- Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; FunWebProducts
- Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Hotbar
- etc.
Below is your browser identification. If any of those 'strange' bars show up it's a good idea to go to the 'help I think I'm infected' section

CCBot/1.0 (+http://www.commoncrawl.org/bot.html)

For those people interested in what else is told about them by the headers above: take a look at the images below, generated by a program which analyzes my logfiles to show statistics, statistics made with the data your browser sends out everytime you request anything on the web using your browser. Please note that though this seems a breach of prviacy, I'm i still in doubt whether it is, it is not used by me, or 99% of all the other sites out there, to collect data about you specifically. The data is only used as stated in the site disclaimer: to generate visitor statistics. Using thos I can see not only what url directed you here but also which operating system you are using, which browser etc.
