Spyware protection

[.Maleficus.]

Thanks for the input guys.

I downloaded the trial for NOD32, ran it, and it still didn't find the keylogger. That's pissing me off. Should I just Erase it? Also, I forgot that I haven't installed Ad-Aware yet. I'm downloading now. Hopefully that will help.

Thanks again guys. +rep to all of you.

when you get that keylogger off your PC try spyware blaster, it prevents those things from installing in the first place, run it on my normal use PC and not a problem so far.

have you tried updating your virus/spyware scan programs?

Most update when I turn the computer on.


Ok guys, so, I now have another problem. I've just ran BitDefender and it found 2 viruses, BUT, the Disinfection failed, and the Move failed. What do I do now? I deleted the file that one of them was in, but the other is in a weird folder I can't find (C:\System Volume Information\...). Should I leave it alone and hope for the best?

If you can't find it, then go to folder options, and select show hidden folders and deselect hide system files.

There is a 30 day fully functioning trial of Kaspersky Internet Security Suite available from here:

http://www.kaspersky.com/internet_security_trial

download it

uninstall all your other security software to ensure no conflicts (firewall antivirus the lot - cos this baby does it all very well)

Install and run a full scan - see if it gets it (willl be surprised if it fails)

enjoy the 30 days free then decide if you

a) want to take my original advice and pay for it, or
b) want to have hours more fun constantly waging an unwinable war

Suck it and see
