This devil has installed itself on my system along with
Search Extender and Shopping Wizard and I can't lose
them, no matter how hard I try. My home page reads like
this res://ywgbb.dll/index.html#96676. Have used
Spybot, Adaware but no luck. Any suggestions? Am
running Windows XP
Thanks in advance

Hi Jason :)

You have a hijacker. See the following:

HiJackThis: - Free

Go to
http://computercops.biz/downloads-cat-14.html ,
or
http://tinyurl.com/2oce8
and download HiJackThis. Unzip to a folder other than your Desktop or the
Temp folder, doubleclick HiJackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log"
button. Press that, save the log some place you remember where it is.
Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so DO NOT fix
anything yet.

Open the copy of your log in NotePad and make a copy. Then you can go here
to post you log:

You will need to register to open a new thread to post you log. It is free,
and no one will Spam you, it is one of many that provides this service. Once
registered, go to the HiJackThis section on the forum list and click to
open. Then start a new post and post your log. The experts there will
analyze the log and report back the results. Please allow at least a few
hours or a days time for a response, depending on when you post the log

Remember, you must return to the HJT site to get your answer. It is a good
idea to click the "Notify" box so that you will get an electronic

But, you must still return to the site of your answer

Hope this helps.

Needless to say, you have multiple Spyware hijacks.

Thank you so much for your suggestion. I will certainly
give it a try. Much better idea than introducing my
computer to my baseball bat!!!
Will let you know how things turn out.
Thanks again
