Default I.S.T. I.S.T. browser modifier is trying to install.


I.S.T. I.S.T. browser modifier is trying to install:
This (severe) message is constantly popping up (microsoft
anti spyware beta 1 mart). Have run addaware, scanned
with spybot, beta 1 mart and norton. Nothing works.
Ran all scans in safe mode and also when connected to the
internet. Freakin' messsage pops up whenever a command
is issued: If I go to my outlook express...Bingo!
Message pops up...If I go to, say, a different site,
voila, message pops up again. I can't keep clearing and
removing this threat because it is taking up to one hour
a day to do this task!!
Oh yeah, I don't know if this other problem has anything
to do with this but when I "turn off computer", I have to
do it twice! The p.c. shuts down, starts up and then
shuts down again! WHAT IS GOING ON?!

Try the removal tool for ISTbar at symantec site below. Let us know if it
helps. Ed

For information - the MS antispyware (MSAS) removed the
IST for me but I ran that symantec tool as well which
confirmed removal - IST not found.
