I removed IST.ISTbar Browser Modifier with Microsoft Anti-
spy ware software and it just comes back again when I
restart. I even tried running Microsoft AntiSpyware
software from windows safemode but I get the same problem.

Any suggestions on how to permentantly remove itself?

Another problem: I cannot seem to get the "report a
problem" function to work in Microsoft anti-spy where. It
asks me to check the proxy settings even though my browser
and outlook express works.

This the the description that was provide by microsoft
AntiSpyware:
Details: ISTbar is an Internet Explorer redirector that
modifies your homepage and searches without your consent
using an Internet Explorer toolbar.
Status: Removed

Regards,
paul

Hi Paul,

Try this:
Boot into Safe Mode (F8) at startup;
Empty your temporary files AND your Temporary Internet Files C:\Documents
and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files folder ;
Run the scan while in safe mode;
If you are running SP2, open IE--->Tools--->Manage Add-ons, and uncheck any
BHO's that you don't recognize.
