Huntbar Browser Hijacker

[Nate]

I successfully installed MSFT Spyware Beta on my notebook
pc (Windows xP SP2).

However, I keep gettiing "Warning" message's from MSFT
Antispyware that says "Warning, HuntBar Browser Hijacker
is trying to Install!" I keep clicking "remove!" and
Huntbar is apparently still not removed, even when I
reboot. I keep getting the Warning message over and over
and over again.

Spybot has identified this Huntbar thing as well, but I
have not been able to remove Huntbar with Spybot.

How often (every couple days, weekly, monthly, etc) does
MSFT's AntiSpyware program update? (definitions, pests
and viruses, etc)

I had the same problem. I downloaded the SpySweeper 30-day trial from
webroot, not the online scan, and it helped to clean the last bit of Huntbar
off my system.
