The last couple days I have been trying to get rid of mass adware spyware and trojans from the kids desktop computer. I only had avast running on it ( XP SP1) and it just wasn't doing it for her. Don't understand, I'm on torrent sites all night and download constantly and I never have any trouble with my laptop. I normally run spybot and adware personal se once a month on her computer and it takes care of the issues. Not this time. I purchased spyware doctor and discovered another 178 more issues being missed. I also ran spysweeper and found ten more issues. After getting things cleaned i finally got all the ms updates ... and FINALLY installed sp2. I scanned with spyware doctor again tonight and adaware and it came up clean. I do still get an
ocassional ad in a new ie window now and then but I just can't determine where it is being generated from. Each window seems to have a different header and the ads are different. Just curious if anyone has an idea how to trace the file that is generating these ie ads. It's the last little issue I need to solve.
Or maybe suggest another program to find the issue.
