Kiwee removal

[Bobm0001]

For some reason, the Kiwee Toolbar has started showing up when I try to
access the Internet. I use Add/Remove to remove it and it appears to work,
but it reappears both at the top of my Mozilla Firefox page and in the
Control Panel add/remove section. McAfee and Spybot don't remove it.

Hi!

You may have to remove the problem with a different anti-malware/spyware
application. Although there are a lot of reputable apps out there, not
all of them find every threat. Fortunately, it's usually OK to have more
than one.

But if you don't want to do that, a quick fix may be possible by opening
the Tools menu and looking at your collection of add-ons to see if the
offending add-on can be disabled or removed that way.

it is likely a browser helper object
(bho)

you can use either "hijackthis" or
Microsoft's autoruns freeware to
disable/remove the bho.
