| Has anyone else been pestered by the 'SpyAxe' self installing spyware
| program. It purports to be a windows spyware warning message, which you
| can't get rid of until you visit their website and download software, at a
| cost to, remove it. I have had the problem twice now, and the only program
| I've found that can deal with it is 'Panda Titanium 2006'.
