netmasta Posted August 29, 2005 CID Share Posted August 29, 2005 It could be a BHO (Browser helper object, aka:toolbar). What browser are you using? If IE Do you have XP SP2 installed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

netmasta Posted August 29, 2005 CID Share Posted August 29, 2005 Firefox, Hmm... Well, anyway, not all spyware removers remove everything. I personally use Spybod S&D, Adaware and Hijackthis. You may have downloaded spyware without realizing it. Just be careful of downloading things in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
