Thanks all for the posts helping us deal with unwanted
toolbars that are added by devious people.

I've got one that will not delete in the add/delete
programs in control panel and even after tracking down
some of the subfolders its link content keeps reappearing.

I have disabled what I beleive was the source in the
startup but it remains on the internet explorer view
dropdown.

How do you delete unwanted toolbars from internet explorer?

similar threats to your privacy and security. If such threats are found, it can give
you some information about the interloper and remove it from your system; creating a
backup beforehand.

SPYWAREBLASTER doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being
installed. How? By setting a "kill bit" for the spyware ActiveX controls, it prevents
the installation of any of them from a webpage. You can run Internet Explorer with
Active-X enabled, but you will never even get a "Yes/No" box popped up, asking you to
install a spyware Active-X control (Internet Explorer will never download or run it!).
All other Active-X controls or plug-ins will work fine. The SpywareBlaster database
contains information on these known spyware Active-X controls. Make sure you run the
Check For Updates feature frequently to get the latest database! (And make sure you
check the new items to protect your system against them!)

A wealth of information on many of the spyware items that SpywareBlaster protects
against can be accessed here: http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/ This site can also
check any scum/spyware you might have acquired (in some cases unknowingly) in trips
around the internet.
