Hi Again!
So I uninstalled SpyBeware as you recommended.
Now, I ran ad-aware and it came back squeeky clean! I ran
Shreddar the other night and it came back clean. So I ran
SpyCop tonight and it came back with bugs but to remove
them I have to register and that I cannot do because of
IE. I tried updating it before I scanned but it
says "error connecting to SpyCop server".
So will I just reinstall the OS and stop bugging you or
have a another solution??!!!
A VERY frustrated Irish Gal!

I really do recommend that you UNINSTALL SpyBeware - it's
not a well-known
product, and if you have to pay for it, it's probably not
worth the money!!
Use Ad-Aware instead - www.lavasoftusa.com (download it
on another PC - it's
around 6MB - copy to a CD, and install to your PC)
It's free, has a very good reputation, and you can remove
anything it finds,
safely!
By all means, post your HiJackThis log here - I'm no
expert, but there are
others who are, and they read these groups.

Hi!
I ran Shreddar again, not in safe mode though as I dont
know how! After running it it said my computer was
clean.
So I ran SypBeware which found 18 infected and then to
remove them I have to register which once again I cant
as
I dont have IE working! Incidently how much does it cost
to register? I have a log from HiJack this, is that any
good?!. I am on the verge of reinstalling my OS as Ive
spent the past three weeks trying to sort this out and
Im
getting nowhere!
Regards
Sue

Run CWShredder in Safe Mode
you can run it straight off a floppy disk created on
another machine - no
need to update if it's less than a week old.

When I run Spyware Cop it says that it finds stuff
but
to
remove them I have to register and I cannot as IE
doesnt
work for me. I have the same problem with Shreddar,
it
says it found stuff but to remove them I must update
and
when I try to it says error connecting when trying to
update. I have tried this several times and I have
gotten
the same thing every time. Any suggestions for me??

Noel,
I've had that problem as well, and have tried
your
sites
but how can I update it if I cant get into
Exploer? It
won't update for me. Have you any suggestions?
It
says it
found stuff but to remove it I need to register
but I
can't do that as I can't get into Explorer??
Hi, Susan...
What program is telling you to register
beforehand?
I'd
suggest using
another one.
Since you are posting from the Microsoft web-
interface
to these groups,
you do have Internet Explorer handy somewhere. Can
you
download the
programs that *Noel* suggested on the computer
you're
on now, burn them
onto a CD then transfer them over to the ailing
computer ?
Or have I missed something...?
Rick
Regards
