You may want to try running Spybot Search & Destroy in safe mode.
Sometimes that helps get rid of the more stubborn ones.

I have just erased Spybot from all my computers. After three years I believe
I can say that it is very weak compared to SuperAntispyware, AVGAntiSpy and
CounterSpy, which are my preferred AS progs.

Buy three or four altogether and get economy postage.

How would you compare CounterSpy and AVG AntiSpy? I am
particularly concerned with low resource usage.

For some reason SAS wont operate properly on my portable and
I am forced to look at the above two programs.

Thanks.

I use both of them but I believe CounterSpy uses the most resources. If I
need more power and I am not on line I switch them both off.
There is a good little program free called 'EnditAll' which will free up
resources if you need to and they will all come back when you re-boot. I
find it most helpful when I need to run my Flight Simulator, which takles
every bit of power I can throw at it.

is one place where you can download it.
