When you say "spybots" - how have you determined that?
Regardless, I have read similar posts of horror stories with this
application (using the term loosely).
Cut straight to the chase and run "Hijack This"
Go to:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip
Unzip, double-click "HijackThis.exe" and Press "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log"
button.
Click: "Save Log" (generates "hijackthis.log")
Next, HijackThis | Config [button] | Misc Tools [button]
Click: Generate StartupList log [button] (generates "startuplist.txt")
Next, go to the below location: Spyware and Hijackware Removal Support.
