Topic: SpyWare Virus

[FireSeraph]

Hi all. I have a virus of some sort on my pc...I have tried everything to get rid of this...It is a red X on the right hand side of my task bar that keeps asking me to install special antispyware tools b/c my pc is infected with spyware...I downloaded ultimate boot disk for windows, built the .iso and then booted the cd from startup...then I ran multiple programs to eliminate any threats...Even though it found a few vulnerabilities the virus itself is still present, any suggestions?  I really want this gone...thx

You could try SuperAntiSpyware, or MalwareBytes, both of which offer free versions.  It sounds like you have a derivative of SpyAxe, which is a rogue spyware removal app, and if neither of the above work, I have a specific SpyAxe removal tool which you could try, if you want to PM me an email address to send it to (if different to the one in your profile).

Thank you very much, MalwareBytes did the trick
