Why is it impossible for Defender to remove 'Claria.GAIN.Trickler' from my
computer?
Defender gives an error and remains visble on the taskbar.
 
Hi Goos,

Also consider installing "SpywareBlaster" on your system
as its free and this will enter Claria & Gain Publishing
into the restricted zone so you will not have problems
with them again :) Its great for blocking thousands of
sites like this and malicious Active X components

SpywareBlaster is compatible with AOL's browser; it also works with current
versions of the Netscape, Firefox, and Mozilla browsers. Its most recent
iteration is SpywareBlaster 3.5.1


I hope this post is helpful.
Let us know how it works ºut.

I also keep getting a report of this spyware and get a Failed msg when
WinDefender tries to delete it. I tried Spybot and it didn't detect it. I
called MS and they recommended going to pandasoftware.com and using their
detect and remove webpage. It's a long scan, which is running now. Will
report later if it works.

A question, however. Does anyone know what this "potential threat" actually
DOES on one's computer? If anything? ;-)
 
The Claria.GAIN.Trickler is located in the Volume Table Information and has
been found by The Windows Active Scan (from internet) :
c:\system volume information\_restore
{80e0a850-d12e-4605-8897-49ff033a270}\rp90\a0063435.exe
comment: unable to clean.

I don't know what it means but it must be of some importance, otherwise it
should be able to be removed.

I just have run the Panda Active Scan but it dit not find the Claria threat.
I think most scanners do not check the VTI.
