I have been unable to run my first scan with MS
AntiSpyware. It installed ok, and will scan long enough
to detevt two spywares - "Twain Tech Adware",
and "KeenValue Perfect Nav Browser Modifier". After
scanning about 20,000 files, it hangs up
on "gobackio.bat". I have tried several times (in safe
mode, too) and it can't get past that file.

I use Windows XP with SP2. Any suggestions?

Click to expand...

Start the sysem in the Safe mode (F8 during boot-up) and search for that
file gobackio.bat on your hard drive(s) - rename it, to for example
gobackio.ba_ (or just delete, if you are absolutely sure that it is
unnecessary file).
Then run MSAS in this mode and perform full system scan (select this option
under Scan settings).
