SpyAxe the highly ignored spyware/malaware?

[Guest]

It's been around since approx. Nov 8. Non of the popular antispyware
programs catch it and noone seems to care. It is serious! In an other post
in this newsgroup Pandascan finds it >
It runs an active x control in Explorer and my homepage is only spyaxe.com.
No matter what I put.

It continously pops up a warning telling me that my computer is infected and
takes me to spyaxe webpage, which uses the Microsoft Security Center logo.
Makes you believe that it part of windows. It obviously has nothing to do
with Windows, but you can be cought unaware.

The way I removed was as follows:

-I ran in safe mode
-Deleted all files called Sp4 and Spyaxe
-del all reg keys displaying sp4 and spyaxe and all related Csid keys
-del active x controls
C:\windows\adslpbd.dll
HomepageBHO
Research
Security Toolbar

I am no computer expert so don't know why this really worked, but I post it
here to help the experts get to the bottom of this problem.

You've done a fairly good job of removing the infection, but here's a bit
more that you may find interesting:

Anonymous Bob had the only solution that worked for me. The Link
http://www.sysinternals.com/Forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2200&get=last had
http://www.spyaxe.com/uninstall/uninstallers.zip which was the only thing
that got rid of this Trojan my system called worm_attck_v122.02a. I tried
all that Hijackthis, DrWeb CureIT, A2 Free, Ewido, Spybot, and Adaware and it
all didn't worked. All that found several other things MSAS beta missed and
a few other viruses that didn't seem to be doin any damage(yet).
