Is there a new spyware program out there?
I've picked up something when I wasn't paying attention, it's some kind of search program, one that highlites keywords, even on user names.
I tried to download a spykiller, but this thing senses what I'm looking for makes me think of a keylogger, and I can't get any type of killer to download.
I've got ad aware, spybot s/d, spy blaster and nothing is finding it.
So far it's more of a nuisense, but I don't want carried off to search pages or product pages, how can I kill this?

They have a free version. I've used it and it found stuff others did not find.

2. Go here they will ask you
to post an HiJackThis log. It will all be explained in easy to follow directions. They WILL find the problem.

3. Son of a bitch is still here
I can't download anything to kill it, I've tried ewido, it looked promising but I can't download the program, instead I get carried off to msn searchpage, and from there to some funky page.
This thing has some type of AI, it lies undetected and springs up, I'm going to buy the webroot software, and try loading it, if that doesn't work the only thing I can do is wait until someone much smarter than me comes up with a way to kill this monster.

4. Go to the link I put up
and they will show you how to post a Hijackthis log. This is one sure way of getting rid of that for free. It's very easy to do.
