The Spyware programme detects a couple of spyware threats
that return after deletion
eXact search Bar Browser Plug In and FunWeb Products
(adware). Why does this happen and how do I rid them from
my computer permanantly?
 
Disable system restore, restart the computer in safe mode open AntiSpyware,
on Scan Page, choose Scan Options > Full System Scan. Run the scan at least
2 times.

Hi Alan,
Boot into Safe Mode (F8) at startup;
Empty your temporary files AND your Temporary Internet Files C:\Documents
and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files folder ;
Run the scan while in safe mode;
If you are running SP2, open IE--->Tools--->Manage Add-ons, and uncheck any
BHO's that you don't recognize.

I kept having the same problem! I found that going in and
deleting the files in the TEMP directories at C:\ and at
C:\Windows, stopped it. Hope this works for you. You may
also want to clean out your Temporary Internet Files.
