The purpose of an AntiVirus is to have it monitoring your system at all times. Please enable it at startup and use it, or we are both wasting our time here.

As you have Windows ME, we are quite limited in the tools available to us to try to ferret out the source of the infection.

Download and install Spybot Search & Destroy 1.4
  • Run Spybot and click on the 'Search for Updates' button. Install any updates that are available.
  • Now click Mode menu and choose 'Advanced Mode'. Next click on Immunize to your left.
  • Click the Immunize button on top to Immunize your computer - you should do this each time there is an update.
  • Click 'Check for Problems' and fix all the entries, which are indicated in RED.

Download Adaware SE and install it if you don't have it already. Make sure it's the newest version and check for any updates before running it. Run the scan and fix everything that it finds.

Please let me know what these programs found on your system.
