targetsaver adware

[Jordan]

I installed MS antispyware and it removed dozens of nasty
little programs. There's only one left -- targetsaver.
Each morning, it shows up in my scan results and each
morning I delete it. It keeps coming back! Any
suggestions?

Start the computer in the Safe mode (F8 during boot-up), run Windows
Explorer, go to your profile temporary folders (usually C:\Documents and
Settings\username\local settings\temp and c:\Documents and
Settings\username\local settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5) and
delete all the files in
those directories and subdirectories.
Then do a full system scan with MS AntiSpyware (check the proper option
under Scan settings). Also using some other "cleaning" software such as:

Spybot Search&Destroy http://www.majorgeeks.com/download2471.html
HijackThis http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html
CWShredder http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3019.html
Ad-Aware SE Personal http://www.lavasoft.com/software/adaware/
McAfee Stinger http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

If you run HijackThis you can check the log it prepares - just copy and
paste it to the http://www.hijackthis.de web page and click analyze button.
