Host File Hijacker Spyware

[Kathy]

Help! I have two detected threats coming up on my
computer... One is VX2.Narrator Toolbar which is rated
HIGH... and the second is Host File Hijacker spyware...
When I try to remove them with Microsoft AnitSpyware it
says they are removed but when I rerun the scan they
reappear... HELP....
Thanks
Kathy.

Hi Kathy,

Try this: Boot into Safe Mode (F8) at startup;
Empty your temporary files AND your Temporary Internet Files C:\Documents
and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files folder ;
Run the scan while in safe mode;
If you are running SP2, open IE--->Tools--->Manage Add-ons, and uncheck any
BHO's that you don't recognize.
