MS AntiSpyware detected the following spyware on my
machine. I chose to remove the spyware. However, after a
reboot and re-scan the same spyware shows up. I have
removed it several times and it seems MS AntiSpyware
could't get rid off it.

How do I tell if this is a real threat or MS AntiSpyware
mishandles this software since other antispyware software
vendors don't detect it as WildMedia.OverPro?
Thanks,
Hien Doan

I think this is real, based on a quick glance at a google search on the key
you posted below.

I'd recommend restarting the OS in safe mode, and doing full, deep scans
with Microsoft Antispyware until one comes through clean.

Together is always gonna be relative in terms of time. It'd be nice if
Microsoft Antispyware were out there first in terms of cleaning the Next Big
Threat, but I don't think we are there yet.
