Aurora and Microsoft/Ad-Aware

So how come Ad-Aware can see the Aurora Spyware (But can't
delete it) and the Microsoft Anti-spyware can't even see
it. Is this a Bill Gates spyware program?

Yes it is. Bill Gates needs more money so he invented spyware. He's also
responsible for global warming since he's invested in an air conditioner
company. And, he's buying up all of the oil in the world to take
advantage of future shortages.

MWAS ***will*** see the Aurora infestation if it's an already detected
variant ... IOW, if people submit suspected spyware via Spynet then the
good folks on the MWAS team will come up with a definition file to
remove it. Unfortunately, the malware writers keep changing the variant
to avoid said detection and removal.

Have you done a Full system scan with both programs or are you just
doing a " quick " scan ?
Are both programs up to date with the latest definition files ?
Did you attempt doing Full system scans in Safe Mode after first doing
them in normal Windows mode ?
