The particular VX2 variant that you cite is extremely difficult to
remove. It would be best if you went to a spyware forum that could walk
you through the steps.

Please read the guidelines of the one you choose prior to posting

Steve, I know these things are tough - really tough - but this is where
we desperately need Microsoft to step up to the plate. Like many people
I've already done the loop on the spyware forums. Seems like all they do
is walk you through the creation of Hijaack This logs, collect the logs
and that's the last you hear of it.

I've now spent many hours trying to to help a friend who's system has
been rendered all but useless by Cool Web Search, VX Transponder and a
couple others. None of the current spyware tools, including MS
AntiSpyware, are up to the challenge, and at this point I've thrown in
the towel until I hear some new developments. Just going around and
around posting logs and downloading updates has not been productive. At
this point, when friends as me about buying a new computer, I tell them
to consider an Apple.

MS has to forget about all the other anti-spyware programs and
companies, quit passing the buck and do whatever it takes to regain
control of their platform.

Sorry for the negative vibes, but I had to unload this frustration
somewhere.
 
Understand your frustration, Jim. It's abominable that the perpetrators
of this crud go unpunished . They should feel the brunt of the public's
wrath.
AFAIK, MS has every intention of making this an effective spyware
removal program. Problem is, the spyware has crossed the line and now is
malware (trojan, worms, virus-like behavior).
Let's see how this plays out before pronouncing judgment.

If you need help with this issue, either go here:

and read the guidelines prior to posting or see if reading this thread
provides enough info on removing the crudware :

The standard antispyware programs can not remove this variant. Wish it
did :(

Well, you could depend on MS to solve it.. may take
time... or you could use third party tools and remove it
now. Eventually MS will know the solution and add it as
an update.
