It's getting to be a real pain and won't stay gone despite registry
attempts to clear it.

Suggestions?

I'm also would like to know its origin if anybody knows.

OS: 98SE with latest criticalupdates

Have you tried using Ad-Aware to remove it?

Yep, doesn't recognize it. S&D catches it though but only takes out half so
have to physically remove from the registry. Classic pain.


Thanks.

Well, you could try some of the other Malware removal software or uninstall
SpeedBit. Just a suggestion.

I don't want or need either. Didn't ask for nor willingly collected
which makes me think it piggy-backed in on something else. What that
something else is, I'm unable to find which brought me here.

Just don't care for critters invading the PC space unbeknownst since
items are not where they're usually "supposed" to be. Yes, I tweak. ;-)

Thanks for the help.

Ciao

Ok, so you have updated detection files it seems, but just maybe an
updated baseprogram, S-S&D 1.4, will make a difference.

Oooh! Thank you. Current is 1.3. 1.4 heading down the path as I type.

For some reason, with the updating I thought that the entire package
updated in time, not just the definitions. What happens when one thinks. ;-
)

The problem seems to be solved. It either became tired of me or I killed
it.

Thanks for the input.
