Possibly the best site on the internet (or at least in the top 3 or 4) for
assistance with spyware problems is aumha.org -
first read the instructions.....
http://forum.aumha.org/viewtopic.php...11e14 0de993b

follow them!! - then post your log to the forum.

I know personally many of the participants, and respect their abilities
(well, let's be blunt here - I bow down before them!!) - and their concern
for the user's systems is second to none. If they say you need to reformat,
then that's the only fix that will work! If they say you're clean, then
chances are that you really *are* squeakingg

AFAIK, thespykiller.co.uk is not related to spykiller.com (the source of

remove any spyware that is found on the computer and they always find
something, whether genuine or not.

Tks for your response. The KillBox from www.thespykiller.co.uk was
recommanded by the Tech Guys Forum and used apparently quite often
after
analysing the logs of Spybot S&D. Dont see this particular program in
the
list??? I'm I missing something?

Take a look at the information here. Scroll down to SpyKiller. If
you
have
it installed, you really should uninstall it.
