How do you get rid of antispy check from your computer? I have an
anti-spyware program on my computer but all it does is find it and quarantine
it but when I reboot its there again! Can anyone help me?? I have Windows XP.

You have picked up a rogue program. It is called "rogue" because it pretends
to be A Good Guy but is really Evil.

Go here and see if there are removal steps for it:

Run both SpyBot Search & Destroy and your Anti-virus in Safe Mode.
All info below.

http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html

Spybot Search & Destroy 1.5.2 is a very good, FREE Anti-Spyware Program.
Download, install, update, and immunize your System with it.
Then SCAN with it.
Update it, and scan your System once a fortnight.

Important re: Safe Mode
If you happen to find a problem that you can’t uninstall / delete, reboot
the computer, and go into Safe Mode.
To get into Safe mode, tap F8 right at Power On / Startup, and use UP arrow
key to get to Safe Mode from list of options, then hit ENTER.
RESCAN your computer with Spybot S & D while in Safe Mode.

Even though you see the file on your desktop RIGHT click it,
PROPERTIES, and see the Location there. Also look for
attributes and so on.
