i wouldnt do that, these kinds of programs are notorious for giving you the runaround with their own uninstallers |

as the dominant force with almost 90% of the browser market it stands to reason that ie is going to attract more people looking for exploits

christ thats just as bad as the crap youre trying to get rid of!!! listen up people STICK TO THE WELL KNOWN ANTISPYWARE AND ANTIVIRUS PRODUCTS (mcafee, norton, avg, ad aware, spybot, spy sweeper, coolwebshredder) in answer, no its not worth buying - grokster, kazaa and media gateway - NONE of those are malware remove that program asap, you might have made it worse! |

make a new system restore point and actually let that program install so you can get a clue as to what its called (the one that you're asking about)

I already have. did it as soon as i'd run the scan. The old 'you have all these bad files on your computer but you have to pay us before we will remove them' line feels a bit like extorsion to me |

Ran it and it found no problems. I then tried trend mirco antispyware which was a link from the CWS site and it found 23 items in the registry which it has now removed. Most were remnants of a brush with Edonkey. My little toolbar icon is still there and i still get the same ones picked up in spybot...Vcodec Edited by Peter Fenwick |

to create a new restore point.... start.... all programs... accessories... system tools.... system restore...create new restore point give it a name, like "before running spyware program" when its created successfully, double click on the annoying toolbar icon and let it install, then let us know what it does, this should help in identifying how to remove it once its installed |

It's sorted. It turned out to be malware known as spyaxe. Relatively new I think and designed to force you to buy it. These two links got me sorted. The first explains what it is, but then links to a downloadable program that does a free scan then asks you to susbscribe before it will clean your pc. The second takes you through a free process. Time consuming but it worked. http://www.spywaredb.com/remove-spyaxe/ http://malwareremoval.com/plog/index.php?op=ViewArticle& articleId=48&blogId=3
Thanks for all your help guys, especially you Stephen. Edited by Peter Fenwick |
