Guys, stop yanking his chain. Roadster, the only way to be sure is to backup your data on an external hard drive, format and reinstall your machine and the programs.. Like the Marine in Aliens Pt2 said. "Let's take off and nuke the planet from orbit, it's the only way to be sure..."

Try this (Spybot search and Destroy): http://www.safer-networking.org/index2.html and this to find out what else is running. http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en...ols/hijackt his Then the real work begins.

Maybe a app that is virus software first, and spyware second, would be better...
