If you are surfing the net and happen to come across a site that forcefully installs a program called Xupiter you better stop what your doing and immediately download Spybot Search & Destroy as almost nothing else is going to get rid of it. It’s a nasty utility that virtually takes over your browser. [Wired]

I have been hijacked as well!These people are terrible! Class action? probably not, they won’t be in the US by the time you find them so you can serve papers…. SO who are the people carrying this spy/ad/anthraxware in their products?THOSE are the people to sue/boycott/trash-blog etc.However if there is a class action possible i will be available at the email addy posted minus all #’s (spam protect)
Lets get these nerf herders!
thanks for giving me a place to vent! i got hijacked by (i don’t even wanna write it correctly-so it can’t be used as a link for any one who is unaware-) i got hijacked by-seeq –DOT — com – i waited for many years to get a computer at home-not out of choice-out of being poor-i went to local libraries to go online-and i finally got set up with an older(thanks to my brother) but very usable nice updated 95 system-i am partially disabled and recovering from surgery-i don’t get out much and my time at the computer is precious to me-i will never travel or get too many placesfor example-i listen to church services on the web-or browse the great world ART museums.
-but they nearly destroyed my ability to even connect properly-and opend my system up for adware and flooded it with cookies and such. i can’t imagine what pleasure they jerks get out of hurting people this way-i have no money-no accounts no credit cars-i’m on medical assistance and live with my disabled mother and sister-we are poor folks.i pity anyone who would have to steal my identity-there is next to nothing to steal-what can we do?-i for one would like to see these peoiple put behind bars-they think they are so cool and smart-i wonder how they would feel face to face with imprisoned gang memberss and psychpaths-not to mention -do any of them believe in God-and that there is such a thing as right and wrong?
i hoipe there is a way to catch them -if there is a class action law suit-sign me up…i have tired to install tracers on my machine to find out who is infiiltrating-and if there is way to report it-to FCC or whatever -i will good luck to all
I will join you on the lawsuit. I am so sick of these browser hijackers I could scream. They are stealing my valuable time and patience.
If anyone decides to pursue a class action lawsuit against those rotten people at xupiter let me know, I will gladly sign anything I have to. They are evil. They tried to hijack me for the 4th time last night. I have adaware 6.0 which gets rid of most of it but you still end up with leftovers. Then when I tried to delete the leftovers it tried to install itself again. THEY ARE EVIL.
yeah i already found this out as it not only downloaded itself onto my computer but a virus called adware-xupiter. i intent to pursue a class action lawsuit against this company anyone interested please email me at jjlmaffett@aol.com
