BugHunter Query

[Chrome Boy]

Can any one help me with this please.
I have had no reply from the gentleman in question.
There is no info on his faq page.
Sorry for putting this in two groups. I can't remember which group supplied
the link.
TIA
John


Hello
Last night I ran bughunter after reading about it on a Microsoft newsgroup.
It found one file which I left alone as I know what it is (its from my canon
scanner).
Today when I started up I now have two notepad popups both saying the same
thing.
I also have 3 desktop icons on my start menu and also a desktop startup in
my startup menu.
How can I get rid of the 4 icons and stop it from starting when I boot up.
Deleting do's not work as they come back when I boot up.
System restore did not work either.
Can you help me please.
John

So while are you asking here ?

Dustin Cook is the author of BugHunter. He is the one to ask. His email address is NOT
hard to find.

Additionally, BugHunter is an anti malware utility so why post here ?
You should be posting this in one of the Usenet anti malware News Groups Dustin is know to
frequent like; alt.privacy.spyware

Sorry to be a nuisance
I asked Dustin Cook but he never replied.
There is no info on his FAQ page.
The program was on this or the other newsgroup.

I forwarded your News Group comments to him.
Hopefully, if Dustin is not away on Holiday, he will respond.

Hi John,

Sorry for taking so long to respond; I did send you two emails. One on
the 11th, and the other on the 16th. Perhaps you have gmail.com in a
spam filter?

This email was sent to you on the 11th:

Hi John,

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330132

This url should help you with the notepad issue. I have seen this
issue before on various programs we use here at the shop. I will look
into the possibility that BugHunter is causing it.

If it would be possible, could you rename and attach the file
BugHunter picks up? I'd like to remove it from the next pattern
release.

If I can be of any further help, please let me know.

--

A followup email was sent on the 16th because I had not heard back from
you. Would you please check to make sure gmail.com is not in a spam
filter? Thank you!

In the future, if you have problems with Bughunter and emailing me
doesn't seem to work, as this case, please post to alt.privacy.spyware
where I am much more likely to read your message. I'd like to thank
David Lipman for bringing your post to my attention.

Happy Holidays!

Last night I ran bughunter after reading about it on a Microsoft newsgroup.

4) Got Bugs?

Mr. French asked - Windows 98SE doesn't boot but I can boot to dos is
there an anti-spyware program that works in dos as I believe Windows is
not starting because of spyware.


*** One can try BugHunter:

Tis amazing, I remember last year you thought of BugHunter as a trojan,
and now you recommend it... Oh the irony.

Nice compilation cd your selling, btw. Are you sure you have every
authors permission to bundle them all like that? I didn't think f-prot
was to be sold...
