What is this "...gritrouter..." business

[thebeartrack]

When I try to go to a website on my browser, something comes up with this "insightGrit Router" business in it. I have never seen this in my life! What is it and what do I have to reconfigure to make this work right?

I am so puzzled....

I am about ready to uninstall everything and start over. Do I have to?

Does this look familiar?

Can you post a screenshot so we can see? Use Ommand-Shift-3 or Command-Shift-4 and paste it in an image editor.

You know, the more I'm thinking about this, the more I suspect that this is directly related to your other problem.

My guess is that you have some sort of Spyware or BHO installed on IE that is tracking your movements. I would suggest trying an anti-spyware app on your Windows installation. Try AdAware or Spybot Search & Destroy.

Or.........he could be tapping into the route they want the Insight delivery man to take to deliver his load of grits........

I am just a little fish and don't mess around with Insight...I was so surprised to find out just what it was!! Big Brother strikes again.!!

How do I get rid of that kind of spying, etc. (Now remember, I am a little fishy in a new pond so...KISS...(Keep it simple, Sweety!)

Programs that are unintentionally installed on a user's system in order to track the user's behavior on the Internet are known as "Spyware" (sometimes also referred to as "Adware"). Windows is particularly susceptible to infection by Spyware programs - especially if you use Internet Explorer which is by far the most exploited web browser.

Fortunately, there is little (if any) spyware for the Mac. I've yet to hear of a situation, other than tracking cookies, of a Mac infected with Spyware.

With that said, you'll need to run some sort of anti-Spyware tool on your Windows installation to scan for and remove spyware. The tools I referred to in my earlier post should be able to find and remove the problem for you.
