winfixer 2005 & winantispyware

[Guest]

Hi,

I have the Microsoft antispyware installed on my system.
Since last week, i am getting the annoying pop-up message
window from winfixer and winantispyware (from
winsoftware.com - i guess). It looks like a trojan-
adware. Is there any fix for this from microsoft. It
affects the IExplorer and Explorer windows. The system
performance has gone down drastically.

Please provide me some help how to fix this trojan out of
my system with MS Antispyware tool

You might want to wait for the next definitions update, and then try
Microsoft Antispyware by doing a full, deep scan, in safe mode. Scanning
with your updated antivirus at the same time is also a good idea.

I suggest this because I believe that with current definitions, Microsoft
Antispyware does not yet clean this trojan.

Please submit a tools, suspected spyware report from Microsoft Antispyware,
if possible--if this errors out, don't worry about it.

This tools, from Symantec, removes earlier versions of your problem, but may
not work on the current version:
