Same Site in Hstory List Every Time I Boot Up

I have a question:

I recently was having troubles with spyware on my system. I ran two adware
killers. It took care of most of the problems, but there is some DSO Exploit
that always reappears. It prevents me from clearing my browser history.
More importantly, once I do run the Spybot Search/Destroy, I can clear the
history, until I reboot. On reboot, I see the following site reappear in my
IE History:

http://{d30c1661-cdaf-11d0-8a3e-00c04fc9e26e}/
{d30c1661-cdaf-11d0-8a3e-00c04fc9e26e

Does anyone have any advice on how I can correct this error?

Thanks
 
Hi,
If you're current with Windows and IE updates, the DSO Exploit is a false
alarm from Spybot.
See: http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=faq&detail=36

Try opening Spybot in advanced mode, go to Excludes and put a check by DSO
Exploit.

Or, there's a fix involving some registry editing at

Regarding the http://{d30c1661... entry in the History, try deleting your
History folder using the appropriate method at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm

If the item returns, you're not free of malware. Go to
