I have disabled the messenger service already, so they do appear to be spyware based, Ill try a removal tool for the trojan Ive just found first then try the spyware killer thingy... | |

quote: Firstly, if your anti-virus program won't remove, get a decent one... Pop-ups, are they the usual pop-up windows you'd get with your browser, or are they the kind that look like Windows broadcast messages? If the former, get some spy/ad-ware remover software (download SpyBot Search'N'Destroy from http://download.com). If the latter, you can disable the Messenger service if you're running 2k or XP - reply if it's these you're getting, and I'll post instructions on how to do it in 2k or XP (let me know which you're using). | |

I have just discovered I have 5 varients of the Trojan Horse virus on my computer. My existing antivirus software cannot remove them and its really starting to do my head in. |
