Hi Reid,
Thanks for your continuing help.
I have had McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006, Ad-Aware, Spybot and Microsoft Defender installed for some time.
But over the past week I have done/noticed :-
1: Installed Spyware Guard, SpywareBlaster and the IE-SPYAD list. All as per the
http://www.techsupportforum.com/reso...-b-trojan.html thread.
2: Installed the latest critical windows updates. Plus (for no particular reason I guess) the
optional windows updates :-
a) Intel Corporation - Networking - Intel(R) PRO/100 VE Network Connection.
b) Update for WMDRM-enabled Media Players (KB902344).
c) Update for Windows XP (KB904942).
3: When I run my CCleaner, I'm getting a new problem called "Obsolete Key" : SidneyChong co. Whatever that is?
4: Yes I've just removed
ieSpell as part of your last instructions, but last week
ieSpell had "suddenly & mysteriously" disappeared from my IE toolbar and I had to reinstall it.
[Bye the way, is ieSpell suspect? Or can I reinstall ieSpell again - I much prefer it to Google's spell checker!]
5: The Back button on my IE toolbar has become tempermental and I now often have to double click it to get it to work.
6: I've run a debranding program over the past week :-debrandinghttp://windowsxp.mvps.org/ie/ispunbrand.htm
7: Also over the past couple of weeks I've installed the freeware programs - MiniLyrics, Registrar Registry Manager and FreeRAM XP Pro.
I've think that's about all, hope the information helps you??
Yours gratefully,
Mark
