I identified and located a hijacking BHO using the BHO
System Explorer. I would then highlight the BHO and would
click on "permanently remove this BHO". But when I would
run another report the BHO would still be there. This
happened even if I re-booted before running the next
report. I had to go to another site to get assistance in
removing this BHO. Seems that MS needs to build into Anti-
Spyware a process suspender/killer to stop these hijacking
BHO's so they can be fixed. Just my opinion.


Here were the offending entries.

O2 - BHO: MSEvents Object - {827DC836-DD9F-4A68-A602-
5812EB50A834} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\awvtq.dll

O20 - Winlogon Notify: awvtq - C:\WINDOWS\system32
\awvtq.dll
 
Thanks...actually at the time of my post to this group I had already
fixed the problem. It was nice that MSAS could ID the suspect, but
it would have been much better if it could have fixed the problem in
the first place.
