Would very much appreciate your help here.
I have the same problem as HeedLee (see below) and kitepirot (http://www.geekstogo...showtopic=63472)
Some kind of spyware has taken control of my PC and wherever I try to go on the internet, I am forwarded back to a site saying "You have spyware download PS Guard or Spy Trooper". There is also constant pop ups that come as windows (generally from Search2K.net), or a little text box that comes from my quick launch toolbar saying "you have spyware click here to remove it" which brings me back to spy trooper.
I own and ran updated scans of both SpyWare XTerminator and Ad-Ware SE Plus. They run, but can't find anything, all the while the little System Alert Textbox is blinking at me.
This is theft of property and extorsion on an incredibly arrogant and aggressive scale and I am at a loss as to what to do
Would very much appreciate any help and thank-you for doing the kind of work u do.
BTW, when I run Hijack This, I get a BHO that can't be deleted and here is the "HiJack this" Log:
