K, as I thought, there was a rootkit attached to that spyware, which hid it.
I must stop for 20 mins, will get back to you within the half hour.

ah, no worries. Take your time, I'm headed to sleep in a moment anyways. I'll check back tomorrow morning and see how things are going.

Thank you very much for your help, I was thoroughly impressed with your quick response time =]

Nice!
==Again please disconnect from the web, turn off your Antivirus, Antispyware and Firewall for the duration of this scan:
Copy the text in the box to a notepad [format/wordwrap unchecked] and save as CFScript.txt to where you saved Combofix -that is, to your desktop.

Good. Now drag the CFScript.txt icon onto the Combofix icon on your desktop. Combofix will start, let it run, if your firewall prompts then allow all; post the log.
And could you now try to install and run MBAM, please? Update and run the Quick scan.

Just wait for Crunchie or judy, or even gerbil, and either of them, if not all of them will confirm if the log is clean. If not, they will recommend necessary actions needed to be taken.

At least it has fixed the previous problem
