Oh, I didn’t have Delphi, I had AdRoar

I should really just stay away from toolbars. I got this one, and the problems started immediately. I got a pop-up that said, “This module was compiled with a trial version of Delphi. The trial period has expired.” What??? I couldn’t worry about that, since I had other pop-up ads to deal with. They were wreaking havoc on my computer, and it had to end.

I was still kind of confused over this Delphi thing when I ran my antispyware program. When it was done an hour later, it said that I had AdRoar, but it wouldn’t get rid of it. Free programs will do that, I guess. I shopped around some for better antispyware and found SpyZooka. I liked the 100% removal guarantee, so I bought it. Within 15 minutes, my spyware problems were over, and I never heard about Delphi again.
