First off I'd like to say that i'm aware that this is posted in the wrong spot and I have done this because i couldn't find the right spot.

something called KeySpy is on my computer, I have no idea how i got it or how to remove it My HJT log is posted with this, anything there?

the message it gives me on boot up exactly is this, "KeySpy is running in trial version: A popup message will be displayed every 30 minsutes!"

What you need to do:

Get the latest version of Hijackthis (v.1.98.2)

Put it in it's own folder so it can put the backups in a safe place. Like C:\Documents and Settings\Peter\Desktop\HJT\HijackThis.exe (instead of C:\Documents and Settings\Peter\Desktop\HijackThis.exe)

Close all browser windows before scanning with HJT.

Post the new log from the updated HJT in the Viruses forum.
