activesearch question

[David]

I am having a problem getting rid of activesearch .
The microsoft antispyware Beta 1 picks it out but even
after getting rid of it, it keeps coming back every day.
How to I get rid of it for good ???

Thanks,

David...

Additional removal instructions using Microsoft AntiSpyware:
Restart your PC in safe mode and do a full system scan:

On the Scan Page choose Scan Options > Full System Scan. Do this at
least two times until detects something. Also, before you restart in safe
mode, disable System Restore, some trojans and spyware programs are likely
to restore themselves with system snap shots:

Right click My Computer > Properties > System Restore, check the "Disable
System Restore" check box and restart in safe mode.
