Plenty of misinformation in that post, Paul.
1)Firefox is a web browser, not an anti-virus or anti-spyware program so
it cannot possibly "protect your [computer?] from future spyware attacks
and pop ups which are coming in through internet explorer..."
And Internet Explorer 7 went gold in October 2006, not 2007.
2) How did you determine that the OP's computer is infected with Vundo
and Combo?
3) On what basis are you recommending Spybot S & D and Super AntiSpyware
to the OP? And how do those programs protect against viruses?
5) Spyware doesn't confine itself to Temporary Internet Files, and
erasing TIF - which doesn't require "cleanup tools" - won't remove a
spyware infection.
Moreover, so-called cleanup tools often cause more problems than they
solve. All you have to do is read through past newsgroup posts to see
what kind of trouble people have fallen into by using 'cleaner'
software. Finally, cleaner software can't remove an infection.
Often, bringing an infected computer to a professional is the best
solution, if not the only remaining solution before erasing the hard
disk. Today's viruses, spyware and other malicious software can be
extremely difficult to eradicate, and often requires professional expertise.
And here's a sobering thought: In some cases there may be nothing at all
that you can do to remove an infection, no matter what you try. That's
because some infections compromise your computer to the point where you
can no longer rely on what the operating system is telling you. Rootkits
are an example of this kind of infection. In that case, your only way
out is to erase your hard disk and reinstall everything from scratch.
