Frequently Asked Questions - Geek Superhero

1. Geek Superhero warned me about a new program (X). Where do I find out what it is?
   There are 1000's of files, many good, but a few bad. Your best bet is to search for the filename using Google or another search website. They will often find lots of information to help you figure out if the file is good or bad.
   
   
2. I get an error about "INSTALL.LOG" not found when Uninstalling Geek Superhero?
   I'm not sure why, but sometimes the install program doesn't save that file properly. Then uninstalling has problems. Just download this file and save into your Geek Superhero folder, normally you'll be saving to C:\Program Files\Geek Superhero\install.log
   
   
3. What does Geek Superhero protect me from?
   There is some good information on these pages: Features, and specific items (this second one if you know a bit about the registry, etc.)
   
   
4. I opened an email attachment and Geek Superhero suddenly started warning me about changes?
   Most likely, you just opened a Virus or Trojan email! That's how most viruses spread these days, as email attachments. You'll want to click "Fix It Back" for the settings Geek Superhero is warning about.
   More Steps:
   You should make sure you've got the latest virus scanner and start scanning for viruses. If you don't have a virus scanner, McAfee is the one I use.
   You should reboot your computer so the virus isn't running and sending out more messages to everybody you know.
