I'm thinking THE MAN got to this program then. I cannot even find

one of my periodicals today that spyware infestations employing root

using the "think outside the box" type of cleaning - they may be in
for a long haul fighting this crap. Funny thing is - how can this
type of PUP's not be considered viruses now? *scratches head*
It's very interesting that programs that are, effectively, viruses are
being written by companies with the cash to protect themselves from
being detected and removed. Shouldn't there be some law against this
kind of crap?
BTW, what are you using for cleaning now?
I'm using:
Ad-aware
Spybot
Spysweeper
Security Task Manager
BHO Daemon
AboutBuster
CWSShredder
This is after I scan for viruses, of course. Some of those are picking
up the Spyware apps, which is nice.
