a bit of computer advice from the former Resident Computing Intern:
is your computer running something you don’t know it is?
If you’ve encountered a program called “comet cursor,” then it’s likely it is. cc recently installed itself when I visited a friend’s webpage. even more annoyingly, it also installed “webHancer,” a small spyware program.
if you want to know how to remove it, go here:
