I have used the microsoft anti spyware program to remove spyware from my
computer - lots of trojan things. Having supposedly removed them I then get
messages telling me they are trying to load and when I run the spyware
removal program they are all there again. Things seem to be going wrong on
the computer. I have tried using a restore point but am unable to do that.
Now a pop up box tells me my computer and system are being copied. I have
turned the desktop off and am currently using my laptop until I find out what
to do. Can anyone advise me.
Cheers.
 
Hello Anne-Marie,

Scan your computer now online and clean it for free!

and/or

http://www.ccleaner.com/downloadbuilds.asp
Ccleaner - http://www.ccleaner.com
Note, uncheck Yahoos toolbar during install.
Note, Options, Settings, Advanced, uncheck - Only delete files in Windows
folders older than 48 hours.

Open Ccleaner and press "Windows" "Aplications" and "Run Cleaner" from the
menu choose 'Issues' and then press scan for issues, Repair any fºund.
Run twice Ccleaner, the same as above

then:
You can run Ewido in safe mode with networking.

Hi Anne-Marie

Spyware is getting smarter. Nowadays, not only does this stuff get started
when you logon to your account, but some of the malware set themself up as
system Services and extensions to Internet Explorer. This appears to be what
is happening to you. If you only get part of the malware, the other part
attempts to download itself. If the malware can't be readily identified,
then I just run as many anti-spyware programs as I can and hopefully I will
get rid of most of it. But the first thing to do is run a full virus scan,
then the anti-malware. Take Mr Engel's advice and then if the problem still
exists you can install and run Sypbot S&D, Lavasoft Ad-aware Personal and
a-squared. It also doesn't hurt to run Windows Defender. I'm not clear if
you are still using the old Microsoft beta software or Windows Defender. I
would also check you Internet Explorer using Tools->Manage Add-ons and look
for any strange Browser Helper Objects and disable them. If you are worried
about the malware downloading itself, then come up with your internet
connection disabled (sometimes you can do this through your
firewall/ati-virus program or just by physically removing your Ethernet
connection).
