    It's not going to help. The malware is just going to respawn. Get the guided
    help or do a clean install. It's always your choice how much time you want
    to spend on this.

    The best anti-virus software in my opinion is Cyberdefender - I've never
    had anything but good luck with them!

    That is so not true. I do not advise using cyberdefender.

    *_CYBERDEFENDER_(malware)_*
    CyberDefender has a 3% detection rate (this product has never been
    entered in any certified comparative lab testing- and in fact has been
    marked as *Malware*. Use at your own Risk!!)
    'Malware-Test Lab: Antispyware Comparison Report (January 3, 2007)'
    (http://malware-test-lab.blogspot.com...january-3.html)

    Note on Cyber Defender
    'Beware CyberDefender - Tech Support Forum'
    (http://www.techsupportforum.com/secu...rdefender.html)
    *-Note on CyberDefender:-* We originally listed CyberDefender on this
    page out of concerns that the vendor behind the product was the same
    company that previously released Spyblocs/eBlocs, an application with a
    bad history of aggressive, deceptive advertising and illegal
    force-installs. Although we found no major problems in our initial
    testing with CyberDefender beyond false positives that were quickly
    cleaned up, and while the vendor itself halted the sales of Spyblocs and
    vowed not to repeat the same mistakes with CyberDefender, we decided out
    of caution to impose a three month probation period before we would
    consider re-testing and, if warranted, de-listing the the product from
    the Rogue/Suspect list. During that three month probation period we
    monitored the behavior of the company. When we encountered a spurt of
    advertising for the product through adware, we refused to de-list the
    product and imposed a second three month probation period. At the end of
    the second three month probation period we re-tested CyberDefender,
    again finding no problems serious enough to justify listing the program
    on this page. As we have observed no advertising of the product through
    adware for many months, and as the program itself exhibits no problems
    serious enough to warrant listing on this page, we have decided to
    de-list CyberDefender from the Rogue/Suspect list and can no longer
    regard the program to be \"rogue/suspect.

    *CyberDefender AntiSpyware*'
    '
    (http://www.2-spyware.com/review-cybe...06.html#)*2006
    review*
    We DO NOT recommend purchasing and using this program!
    'http://www.2-spyware.com/review-cybe...ware-2006.html'
    (http://www.2-spyware.com/review-cybe...ware-2006.html)
    CyberDefender AntiSpyware 2006 produces false positives. We have tested
    this program on uninfected machine that were never exposed to viruses or
    any other parasites. However, the tested Spyware remover managed to
    detect 30 spyware items (using the Full Scan mode) and 16 spyware items
    during the Quick Scan. In the first case malicious object were related
    to 8 different parasites, while in the latter case items were associated
    with only 4 pests.

    Further analysis revealed that none of detected items are actually
    related to any kind of Malware. Furthermore, some found parasites
    actually are not even parasites at all. For instance, neither C-Dilla
    software protection tool or Engima SpyHunter Antspyware are real
    threats. In our case C-Dilla was installed and used by Autodesk Inventor
    6, professional drawing and graphics software. Removing C-Dilla would
    corrupt this program. Other "malicious" objects that CyberDefender
    AntiSpyware 2006 found were actually related to the following programs:
    the WinRAR archiver (the rar.exe file, identified as Perfect Keylogger),
    Creative sound card drivers (stprov.ini, identified as FreshBar), K-Lite
    Codecs Pack (lame.exe, identified as HideExec), simple self-made
    C++/OpenGL application (6.exe, identified as shopathomeselect), Adobe
    Photoshop CS (several registry keys describing the .sta file extension,
    identified as istbar). See screenshots provided below.

    The Full Scan mode is too slow. Several regular modern Computers were
    fully checked in a little more than one hour. An effecive anti-spyware
    program should scan the system much faster. Quick Scan is also not too
    quick. It usually takes about 5 minutes to complete.

    CyberDefender AntiSpyware 2006 is made by the same company, as
    SpyBlocs, which is a corrupt spyware remover producing false positives.
    Both programs have very similar interfaces, although the vendor claims
    to have implemented new technologies in CyberDefender AntiSpyware 2006.

    Domains associated with the product are cyberdefender.com and
    cyber-defender.com.

    The best Antivirus on the market (by certified lab testing is Eset
    NOD32). This is what I recommend:

    Run Malwarebytes [this is a specialty antimalware that is specifically
    targeted at polymorphic malware (trojans)].

    Download and update, then run full scan with NOD32 4
    Antivirus/Antispware. I would also create an inspection log with
    SysInspector as this will give you a specifc color coded diagnostic
    (green good/red bad) for all the files on your system. Version 4 of
    NOD32 also has self defense to prevent any malware from corrupting it.
    Its a free 30 day trial, so download it, clean your system, then remove
    if you want.

    Last do a full scan with Windows Defender.

    NOD32: 'Best Free Antivirus: ESET! Try free antivirus programs for 30
    days.' (http://www.eset.com/download/free_trial_download.php)
    Standalone diagnostic: 'ESET SysInspector'
    (http://www.eset.com/download/sysinspector.php)
    Malwarebytes: 'Malwarebytes.org' (http://www.malwarebytes.org/)

    Free Antivirus (2 and 3 star certification)
    'Avira Antivir' (http://www.free-av.com/)
    'Avast!' (http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html)
