It keeps appearing after Spysweeper deletes it because their is a second
"hidden" .dll in your system32 folder that when it detects the removal of
"about blank" it recreates it.The program below scans for this second .dll or
ADS (alternate data streams) and will remove it the Newer Ad-Aware SE will
also scan for "ADS" in a different scan than the normal one.
