    What's up with Google?
    I like to Google search images. I've put on my filter but I'm still getting some major pornage.

    It's really annoying me. All I do is write something simple like "loser" and I get a woman with her legs up in the air. :mad:

    How do I fix this?

    I just tried it, with Strict Filtering using the word "loser", and got no "adult" images. Maybe you have some spyware that is serving up porn.

    Maybe Google is way too excited because you use it so much. Lol

    Some thingy's you can get:
    The home of Spybot-S&D!
    Get Ad-Aware Plus for Free with Lavasoft and TrialPay - Lavasoft
    avast! Virus Cleaner - free virus removal tool
    AVG Antivirus and Security Software - Real-time protection against viruses, spyware and malicious websites

    Don't know if that last one plays nice with the others because I don't use it, but the first three will be fine running together on the same computer. All free. Get any or all of this stuff, and run them to see if there's anything icky on the computer. Some things they will be able to just get rid of for you, and some things not. If porn is showing up when it shouldn't be, I have a bad feeling it might be the "not." In which case, you may want to return and share the results and go from there.

    And if you don't have auto update on, you might also want to make sure you run the Windows update stuff before playing around online any further.
