Did you upgrade the ad-aware database to the most current version? You could also try using spybot if ad-aware alone can't clear everything.
Afternoon,
Have got major probs with my home pc and some real malicious spy ware that's got onto it which I can't get rid of - am sending this from work pc which is clean so don't panic about me sending viruses.
I think it stems from me downloading a wav file which when I did AVG popped up saying there was a virus. I thought AVG had dealt with it but when I went onto the web I was getting 100's of pop ups and when I looked in the add/remove programs I had all sorts of new programs including 'The ABI network'. I've run Ad aware, AVG and the MS Spy ware software several times which has found lots of spy ware and Trojans. However every time it says it's cleaned the system when I reboot and go onto the web the ABI network programme is back and so are the pop ups.
As far as I can tell the Windows firewall is on and working as is the IE pop up blocker etc.
I had a friend round last night who works in IT and he's tried all he can but reckons he's going to need to take the machine away and do some registry editing - just wondered if anyone else out there has had experience of the ABI Network / Aurora partnership and if so what you did to kill it.
Oh yeah am using Jaws 6.10, Win XP home, AVG 7 free edition and Ad aware.
Your help much appreciated.
Cheers,
Phil I've
