INetSpeak Adware

S

Scott

Has anyone else run into this? This adware gets detected
but I can't seem to remove it from my computer. Norton
Antivirus also detects it, but it keeps popping up when I
reboot my computer. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Scott,


Open Microsoft AntiSpyware and send a suspected spyware
report from the Tools Menu.


Generally, in a case where the item is identified, but not
properly removed, the next steps are:

Empty your IE cache and your other temporary file folders,
eg: c:\temp, c:\windows\temp or C:\Documents and
Settings\<name>\Local Settings\Temp (the path to your temp
folder will change depending on your name) - sometimes
programmes can be hidden in there - watch out for
mysterious *.exe files or *.dll files in those folders.

Open Internet Explorer
Select Tools > Internet Options
In the Temporary Internet Files section, click the Delete
Files button
Check Delete all offline content, and then click OK


Go to IE Tools, Internet Options, Temporary Internet Files
{Settings Button}, View Objects, Downloaded Program Files.
Check for unrecognised objects there.

If you are running SP2, open IE--->Tools--->Manage Add-
ons, and uncheck any BHO's that you don't recognize.

Run this 2 programs in safe mode also

1) update both Microsoft Antispyware and your antivirus
application.
2) restart in safe mode by pressing the F8 function key
before the first Windows screen appears at startup.
3) do full deep scans with Microsoft Antispyware. Repeat
scanning until a complete scan comes through clean. Ditto
with the antivirus.

This isn't guaranteed, but it works for a great many items
that at first appear not to be cleaned in normal mode.
